Cotton production in West and Central Africa (WCA) has contributed to growth and poverty reduction. Recently, the objective of poverty alleviation has been adversely impacted by the downward pressures on world prices (exacerbated by subsidies by major cotton producers outside Africa). Several countries in WCA are undergoing reforms in the cotton sector to stimulate greater market competition and raise the share of the international price going to farmers. While these efforts would help to improve rural income irrespective of the world market situation, they would be more powerful in combination with a reduction in other countries’ subsidies in this sector.

Cotton production is truly a success story in West and Central Africa. The region is now the second largest exporter of lint, after the United States, with a world market share of 15 percent. Despite its strong performance in the past, the sector is characterized by several institutional and structural weaknesses that jeopardize its viability in an era of increasing globalization of the cotton industry. The sector's future performance will also depend on the implications of cotton sector policies in major producing countries such as the United States, the European Union, and China. This paper examines how the above factors may affect future growth of the region's cotton industry. It also identifies the changes that are required to enable countries in the region to fully exploit the sector's significant growth potential .This paper - a product of Rural Development 2, Africa Technical Families -is part of a larger effort in the region to contribute to the debate on development strategies in West and Central Africa.

In West and Central African countries parastatal vertical coordination is used to control both the input and output markets. The decline of cotton yields and subsequent decline of the parastatals' performance in the late 1990s called for reforms. This thesis assesses the potential economic effects of different institutional structures for the parastatals in West and Central Africa, using the characteristics of the cotton sector in Burkina Faso. The thesis is based in the concept of economic surplus. A structural system is developed to measure the potential economic outcomes of three market alternatives to parastatal vertical coordination. Results demonstrate that when a parastatal is allowed to exercise market power, it extracts rents from the farmers maximizing the parastatal's economic surplus. The primary beneficiaries of the privatization of the cotton sector in West and Central African countries are the farmers, as a result of the higher price received in the output market. The parastatal extracts more from the output market than from the input market. With partial privatization farmers are better off when they receive the competitive cotton price, even when the parastatal exercises monopoly control of the input market, extracting rents from the farmers, than they are when the parastatal exercises monopsony in the output market (cotton buying) and farmers procure inputs in the competitive market.
