Editor's comment: the high price of raw materials is the main problem that currently plagus export enterprises. The rising of natural fiber, especially cotton prices, has the most significant impact on exports.

In the first 3 quarters, the import volume and value of cotton increased by 49% and 85.6% respectively after the rise of international cotton prices and the gap between domestic supply and demand.

In the four quarter, the spread of cotton prices began to appear. Most enterprises began to take a wait-and-see attitude because of the uncertainty about the cotton price trend.

The majority of cotton spinning enterprises participating in the 108th Canton fair said that the current law of self rescue is to abandon the more stable medium and long list of profits, instead of receiving small bills or suspending orders.

The decline in demand and the policy of stabilizing cotton prices have also led to a decline in cotton imports.

According to customs statistics, in 2010 1~10, China's textile and apparel exports totaled 167 billion 610 million US dollars, which has surpassed the total level of last year, and achieved an increase of 22.9% over the same period last year.

In October, textiles and garments exported to US $17 billion 800 million, down to below US $20 billion.

Exports increased by 21.5% over the same period last month. The growth rate was 2 percentage points higher than that in September when the base was low last year.

Imports of US $1 billion 570 million in the month increased by 19.4%, an increase of 1.4 percentage points over September.
