英文文献摘要：
The modern global textile industry requires cotton with strong and consistent fibers in order to produce high quality goods at the high speeds necessary to recover capital costs. The introduction of high volume instrument (HVI) measurement of cotton fiber quality has strengthened the link between cotton prices and attributes on world markets. The spread of genetically modified (GMO) cotton in India has driven India to the second ranked producer and exporter of cotton in the world. However, contamination and other quality problems are endemic to Indian cotton. Using a unique data set of Indian cotton prices and quality attributes from 5 Indian states, this study uses hedonic price modeling to demonstrate that the linkages between cotton quality and price are weaker in India than they are in the United States.

现代全球纺织业要求棉花具有坚固和稳定的纤维，以便以必要的速度生产高质量的产品，以收回资本成本。棉花纤维质量的高量测量仪器(HVI)的引入加强了棉花价格与世界市场属性之间的联系。转基因棉花在印度的普及使印度成为全球第二大棉花生产国和出口国。然而，污染和其他质量问题是印度棉花的通病。利用印度5个邦的棉花价格和质量属性的独特数据集，本研究使用hedonic价格模型来证明印度棉花质量和价格之间的联系比美国要弱。
