Cotton, one of the most important cash crops of the world has many interesting facets. This age old commodity dominates the economy of many countries. In fact, with the passage of time cotton and its business is becoming more scientific, competitive and organized. It is increasingly becoming important to understand cotton and its businesses. In this issue we have published an article that gives relevant information which can help in cotton buying decision. We also have an article on commercial standardization of instrument testing. We intend to publish similar articles in future issues, which would provide in-depth information on different aspects of cotton.

An International Cotton Conference was held in Tashkent from May 24-25, 2005. The conference was organized by the Government of Uzbekistan and International Cotton Advisory Committee. Cotton Bangladesh was proud to publish a special edition covering the event. International conferences play an important role in cotton businesses. We believe that while these events create opportunities of networking and sharing, publishing relevant information on such events also helps in development of the business. The Certified FiberMax® Quality Summit 2005 in Singapore is such an event that Cotton Bangladesh will cover in its next issue.
