Major uses of cotton fibres. Source: Adapted from: Cotton Facts, International Cotton Advisory Committee (ICAC), 2003. The major end uses for cotton fibre include wearing apparel, home furnishings, and other industrial uses (such as medical supplies). The cotton fibre is made primarily into yearns and threads for use in the textile and apparel sectors (wearing apparel would account for approximately 60% of cotton consumption).
Sale by value of insecticides used on cotton declined significantly in the beginning of this century, from almost 19% in 2000 to 14.8% in 2010. In two of the five major cotton-producing countries, a specific pest brought about an increase in the share of insecticides used on cotton in the last two years to 18.7% in 2011 and 16.5% in 2013. No further increases in this share are expected.
