The State Has Introduced The Underpinning Policy &Nbsp; The Cotton Growing Area Of The Yi Cotton Region Can Expand Cotton Planting.

The spring cotton will soon be sown. According to China cotton Association survey, due to 2010 Cotton price Greatly increased this year's national cotton Seeded area There will be an increase. But some cotton farmers are still hesitating: is high cotton price sustainable? Is the cotton market going up and down again in the new year?

A recent issue policy It can solve the cotton farmers' misgivings. A few days ago, the eight departments of the national development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of finance, the Ministry of agriculture, the Ministry of industry and information technology, the Ministry of railways, the General Administration of quality supervision, inspection and quarantine, the supply and Marketing Cooperative headquarters and the China Agricultural Development Bank jointly issued the 2011 cotton temporary purchase and storage plan, and decided to implement temporary storage and purchase in the 13 main cotton producing areas from the new cotton listing in 2011. system We should normalize and institutionalized the measures adopted by the state to temporarily collect and store lint. In 2011, the provisional storage price was 19800 yuan per ton from the standard grade lint to the warehouse. The cotton association of China calculated the reference price of the seed cotton purchase to the public according to the factors such as the temporary storage price of lint cotton, the price of cottonseed and other by-products, and the linen percentage. The reference price of seed cotton purchase calculated according to the price of temporary purchase and storage is equivalent to the lowest protective price of cotton. If the market price is higher than this price, it will follow the market. Compared with the previous implementation of the temporary purchasing and storage measures, this arrangement has two advantages: first, the early announcement of the purchase and storage price will enable cotton farmers and cotton enterprises to make their own production plans ahead of schedule; two, no limit on the number of open storage and storage, so that the storage and transportation enterprises can be assured to buy seed cotton, so as to ensure the benefit of cotton farmers.

When the spring plowing is ready for planting, farmers in the suitable cotton area should consider expanding the area of cotton planting.

First, there is national policy support at the macro level. In March 14th this year, the eleven session of the four session of the National People's Congress adopted the outline of the Twelfth Five Year Plan for national economic and social development in People's Republic of China. It clearly stated: "encouragement and support are the major agricultural products in the producing areas, such as grain, cotton, oil and sugar." Then the relevant departments issued the minimum cotton protection policy, which is undoubtedly a clear policy guidance signal.

Two, there is consumer demand support at the market level. The textile industry is a dominant industry in China. Since its accession to the WTO, the textile industry has developed rapidly. Even during the international financial crisis in 2008, the textile industry has maintained a certain growth rate, but the growth rate has slowed down. In 2010, the investment volume of China's textile industry continued to grow. The annual yarn production increased by 13.7% over the previous year, and the export of textile and clothing increased by 23.6% over the same period last year. At present, China's cotton production can only meet the textile industry's demand of about 60%, and the situation of short supply of cotton will exist for a long time.

Taking all these factors into consideration, cotton prices will remain at a higher level this year, and will not be lower than the state's temporary purchase and storage price. According to the preliminary estimate of the cotton association of China, the annual storage price of 2011 yuan is 19800 yuan per ton, compared with the lowest protective price of wheat. The cotton wheat ratio is roughly at the 1:10 level. According to the cost of cotton planting this year, cotton farmers can maintain their profits. The cotton farmers can safely grow cotton this year.
