Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

Low cost cotton producers produce less cotton in total, but rely more on cotton exports for income. Their low incomes put them on the edge of survival and the fact that they make less in total to export makes cotton export revenues critical. High cost cotton producers depend much less on their cotton exports and have much higher incomes. High cost cotton producers are assisted through direct and indirect payments from their governments, tariffs on cotton imports, farm support programs including subsidized loans, insurance, marketing and promotion assistance, and revenue guarantees. These programs keep cotton production where it is less efficient and have the potential to harm living standards in developing nations and keep them from fully exploiting their comparative advantage in cotton.
