U.S. Organic Cotton Production: Recent Data In 2023, the United States produced a total of 39,259 bales of organic cotton (including both Upland and American Pima varieties). This figure reflects a decrease of 3,624 bales from the previous year. The main production states are Texas (the clear leader), with additional acreage in Arizona, California, Georgia, and New Mexico. Acreage and Share of Total Cotton Production In 2019, U.S. organic cotton production amounted to 23,720 bales harvested from almost 29,000 acres. Organic cotton represents a very small fraction of total U.S. cotton output-about 0.1% to 0.2% of all cotton grown in the country. The U.S. accounts for roughly 2–3% of global organic cotton production. (Source: USDA, 2024)
