US farmers are expected to plant less cotton in 2012 as a decline in prices to below $1 per lb and escalating costs of key inputs such as fuel make it more attractive to sow corn and soybeans. US cotton plantings will range from 12 million to 13.5 million acres (4.9-5.5 million hectares), down 8 percent to 18 percent from last year's 14.72 million acres, industry participants forecast before the annual Beltwide Cotton conference here.
