    The Financial Tribune reported on August 26 that the CEO of the Iranian Cotton Fund said that the country's demand for cotton exceeds 180,000 tons per year, while local production is between
    70,000 tons and 80,000 tons.
    Since growing crops such as rice and vegetables is more profitable than cotton, and there are not enough cotton harvesting machinery, the country's cotton plantations are gradually switching to other crops
    .
    50 years ago, cotton acreage in Iran's Golestan and Mazandaran provinces was 180,000 hectares and 50,000 hectares, respectively, and has now fallen to 18,000 hectares and 1,000 hectares
