International Cotton Advisory Committee
Lorena Ruiz's Company Details
Formed in 1939, the ICAC is an association of cotton producing, consuming and trading countries. It acts as a catalyst for change by helping member countries maintain a healthy world cotton economy; provides transparency to the world cotton market by serving as a clearinghouse for technical information on cotton production; and serves as a forum for discussing cotton issues of international significance. The ICAC does not have a role in setting market prices or in intervening in market mechanisms.Member Benefits When countries become members of the ICAC, they give their Governments a voice in the most important discussions about international cotton issues. Members receive enhanced access to research from the world's premier source of unbiased information about the global cotton industry, and they are also able to participate in cutting-edge cotton research and development initiatives. Scientists from member countries also can apply for the ICAC Research Associate Program, an annual training curriculum for up to 14 researchers.
