    Description
    China is the world's biggest producer and consumer of cotton. The development of the textile industry since the 1990s has increased the demand for cotton and benefited millions of Chinese farmers. However, China's dismantling of state-owned enterprises and liberalisation of its cotton sector as part of its WTO accession commitments have increasingly exposed Chinese farmers to world market forces. Meanwhile, as the USA continues to insulate its own cotton sector in violation of WTO rules, the volume of US cotton imported by China increased by 21 times between 2001 and 2004. The influx of subsidised, low-priced US cotton has contributed to falling domestic cotton prices and the crowding out of local production.

    Export search results

    The export button (to the right?) will allow you to export the search results of the entered query to a CSV file. To export the items, click the "Export" button.

    There are two options to select the items you want to export to a CSV. Either you export all results from a search query, or you select a subset of items from the search results.

    To select a subset of the search results, click "Selective Export" in the Export menu.

    After making a selection, click the 'CSV' button. The amount of items that will be exported is indicated in the bubble next to 'CSV'.

    The amount of items you can export is limited, but authenticating will increase this limit.
