The United States produced 13,539,200 running bales of cotton during the 2025 growing season, according to the latest annual report from the National Agricultural Statistics Service.
The figure represents the total volume of cotton processed through ginning facilities across the country during the complete 2025 season. Cotton ginning is the process of separating cotton fibers from their seeds after harvest.
The data comes from the USDA’s comprehensive tracking of cotton production nationwide, providing an official tally of the year’s cotton output from American farms.
