2013 Cotton Report Published

In a year where heat and flooding impacted profitability, Australian cotton growers won’t be surprised that analysis of the 2013 crop reveals results well below those achieved in 2012.

The recently published Australian Cotton Comparative Analysis (ACCA) report for 2013 shows the ‘average grower’ attained a value per bale of $427 compared to $486 the previous year.  The result for the ‘top 20%’ of growers was a similarly disappointing $445 per bale, a decrease of $33 from the 2012 result.

Boyce publishes 2013 Interim Australian Cotton report

22 October 2013

The recently published Interim Australian Cotton Comparative Analysis (ACCA) for 2013 reveals that despite a small increased yield, growers’ proceeds were reduced by an average of $210 per hectare.

Boyce Director, Paul Fisher, said that for some time the expectation had been that the ACCA will begin to reflect a sizeable increase in the average yield as some growers have been achieving yields of 12 bales per hectare or higher and individual fields have been reported as yielding as high as 15 bales per hectare.

“The potential is obviously there for considerable average yield increase,” said Mr Fisher.

“Growers have however, again suffered from disasters due to heat and flood and these factors continue to lower the average across the industry.”

It was a record year in terms of hectares planted, but the 2012 cotton crop is likely to be defined instead by static yields, a weaker price and widespread flooding causing extensive damage to crops and infrastructure, according to the authors of the recently published Australian Cotton Comparative Analysis report. 

The analysis is conducted annually by Boyce Chartered Accountants, the largest regionally based accounting firm in Australia, in conjunction with the Cotton Research and Development Corporation (CRDC). The resulting publication is regarded as the industry benchmark for the economics of cotton growing in Australia.
