Demand. More people want cotton than there is available which was especially true last year. Among other reasons, the price of transporting the fabric has gotten much higher with rising gas prices, and the land to produce the cotton is disappearing as more and more houses are built on what was once farm land. Include the fact that water is getting more expensive in drought years, and many acres of cotton fields are left unplanted because of the shortage.
