In 2011 5-6, cotton growers' Cooperative Association of China Cotton Association and Xinjiang Huatai cotton professional cooperative group respectively investigated cotton planting area, sowing schedule and cotton growth situation of 2711 cotton farmers in 12 provinces in the mainland and 310 counties (cities and regiments) in Xinjiang autonomous region.

The survey shows that the whole country

cotton

The spring sowing was basically over, the price of cotton fell and the drought in some cotton areas led to the difficulty of pplanting. The increase of actual sown area was slightly lower than the previous statistics.

Although some cotton areas suffer from meteorological disasters such as drought, waterlogging, hail and gale, the meteorological conditions in most of the cotton regions of the country are more suitable, and the overall growth of cotton is better than that of last year. If there is no major disastrous weather in the late stage, it is expected that a good harvest will be achieved.

According to the weighted average calculation of cotton planting area of cotton farmers surveyed, it is estimated that the cotton planting area in 2011 will be 81 million mu, which will increase by 5.2% compared with the previous year, representing an increase of 1.4 percentage points from the previous month's forecast.

In May, most of the cotton in China was in the third to fifth true leaf stage, and some cotton fields began to bud at the end of the month.

The spring sowing of cotton fields in Xinjiang and the Yellow River river basins is over, and some cotton areas in the Yangtze River Basin are affected by drought, and the pplanting is blocked. As of the end of May, the total area of cotton planted in the whole country accounted for 94% of the estimated area.

Since the cotton planting, most of the cotton growers thought that the overall growth was better. 41% of the cotton farmers surveyed thought it was better than last year, 19% thought it was similar to last year, and 40% thought it was worse than last year.

In the middle of May, the sowing and pplanting of the Yellow River valley were all over. Although the initial planting time was postponed, cotton farmers

hurry to sow seeds while the soil is still moist

Sowing, planting concentrated, slightly faster than last year.

By the end of May, some cotton growing areas in the river basin

Cotton grower

There are still more than 20% of seed cotton. Because of falling prices, cotton can not be sold, cotton planting enthusiasm has been reduced, cotton seedling management has been slackened, and individual crops have been converted to other crops. The total cotton planting area in the whole basin is expected to increase by 1.3% over last year, an increase of 1.4 percentage points lower than that in April.

In the early May, some cotton growing areas in the the Yellow River River Basin were characterized by high temperature and drought, and the growth of cotton was not vigorous. The seedling age was less than 1-2 pieces of real leaves, and the emergence of late sowing or replanting cotton was not good. The rainfall increased in the middle and late 5 months, and the growth of cotton was better. At the end of the month, nearly 6-8 of the 6-8 leaves appeared.

46% of the cotton farmers surveyed believed that the seedlings were better than last year, 10 percentage points higher than that of the same period last year. 31% think the seedlings are worse than last year, and 11 percentage points lower than the same period last year, of which Hebei is the best and Henan has a poor seedling.

Because of drought and less rain, the disease of the whole basin is lighter and insect pests are heavier.

The proportion of the Yangtze River Valley till the end of May was 94%. As the cotton farmers concentrated on soil moisture pplanting, the progress was faster than last year by 6 percentage points.

Affected by drought, cotton Plantlets in some cotton areas are difficult to pplant, and there are bad seedlings or bad seedlings. Some cotton farmers give up pplanting. The sowing area decreased slightly from last month. It is estimated that the total cotton planting area in the whole river basin has increased by 10% over last year, an increase of 0.5 percentage points lower than that in April.

Early seedling planting or pplanting cotton had better growth condition. Late seeding or pplanting, slow seedling slowly, dead seedlings and stiff seedlings were more, and seedling condition was poor.

26% of the cotton farmers surveyed believed that the seedlings were better than the same period last year, 4.7 percentage points. 56% thought the seedlings were worse than the same period last year, 0.5 percentage points, of which Jiangsu had better seedlings, and Jiangxi and Hunan had worse seedlings.

Because of the long drought time, cotton seedlings grew slowly and two grade differentiation was obvious. Seedling age was generally less than 1-2 leaves.

Similarly, because of drought, there are few diseases in the whole basin, and insect pests are relatively heavy.

Cotton sales in Xinjiang were earlier and cotton farmers' income was better. Cotton planting enthusiasm was relatively high this year. The sowing area is expected to increase by 6.1% over the previous year.

The cotton planting time in the northwest cotton area was earlier than that in the early May. Most of the cotton in the early May was in the third to the true leaf stage.

At the beginning of the month, the temperature of Xinjiang increased slowly, and the continuous drizzle led to the low temperature of the ground temperature, and the longer the cotton seedling stage, the faster the temperature was, and the more sunny weather, the better the meteorological conditions were.

49% of the cotton farmers surveyed believed that the seedlings were better. 17% thought the seedlings were common, and only 34% thought the seedlings were poor.

In May, some cotton fields in Xinjiang were subjected to meteorological disasters such as hail, gale and rainstorm. Some cotton plants were damaged in varying degrees. They were damaged by cotton seedlings and dead seedlings. Some of them had to be replanted, but their effects were not large.
