What Kind Of &Nbsp Do Cotton Farmers Reluctant To Sell For?

The 10~11 month should be our country.

Three reasons to support cotton farmers' reluctant sale

The cost of cotton production is high and continues to rise.

According to the author's recent visit to Hebei's cotton market research, it was learned that the current price of seed cotton purchased by traders was around 4 yuan / kg, and the yield per mu was less than 2000 yuan, according to the yield of 500 kg per mu.

If the cost of household labor is included, the total cost of cotton per mu is 1900 yuan, of which the cost of collecting flowers is 400 yuan, and the cost of field management is 600 yuan (calculated according to 12 working days per mu, 50 yuan / labor day); the cost of land lease is 500 yuan; the total input of chemical fertilizer, pesticide, agricultural film and cotton seed is about 300 yuan; 100 yuan for irrigation, land reclamation and film laying.

Cotton farmers 6 months of hard work, cotton per mu of pure profit less than 100 yuan, cotton farmers and cotton plants do not have enthusiasm and profit.

During the cotton harvest this year, there was a continuous rainy weather. Cotton production in several main cotton producing provinces in the Yellow River basin was greatly affected.

Since September, there has been a continuous rainy weather in Shaanxi and Shanxi provinces, which has a great impact on cotton yield per unit area, and will reduce production by 20% to 30%.

Similar situation also appeared in Hebei. Farmers surveyed showed that cotton production per unit this year decreased by 10% to 20% over last year.

This year there is a national temporary reserve policy underpinning, farmers generally believe that cotton prices should not be too low.

In order to deal with the ups and downs of the cotton market, the state promptly issued a temporary cotton purchase and storage policy, which was stored at the price of standard lint 19800 yuan / ton.

According to the projections, the price of seed cotton should be around 4.5 yuan per catty.

Therefore, farmers generally do not recognize the market price of seed cotton which is less than 4 yuan / kg.

Cotton grades decline, companies dare not let go of acquisitions

According to a survey and processing company in Hebei Province, it was the most busy time for cotton purchase in the past year, and the enterprises could receive about 200~300 Jin of seed cotton, but this year only received 30 thousand jin.

Due to the slack trading, the company is in a state of shutdown and 20 workers have stopped working.

In the face of cotton farmers who are reluctant to sell, enterprises say they do not dare to accept the quality of cotton at present.

There are two options for lint sales this year. One is preparing for storage, the other two for downstream spinning mills.

Judging from the quality of the acquired cotton fiber, most cotton quality is only 5 or even lower. This kind of cotton can not reach the level of storage and storage, and it is also difficult to meet the requirements of spinning mills. Therefore, the acquisition and processing enterprises are afraid to let go of cotton.

Enterprises also reflect that the state's temporary purchase and storage policy is well implemented locally, so long as there is cotton that meets the demand for storage, it will be convenient to hand over the stock.

At present, the spinning mills also need high quality cotton, so long as the quality of the cotton is good enough, the processing enterprises can buy at a higher price.

But the cotton that can really pick up the cotton is very difficult.

Analysis and suggestions

According to the author's investigation and analysis, the quality cotton in China is still in short supply and the price has certain room for improvement. The cotton planting area of the Yellow River River Basin will decrease to a certain extent next year.

Although the planting area of cotton increased this year, the quality of the fiber decreased due to the late weather, and the quality cotton in the market was in short supply.

At present, the spinning enterprises are not able to buy high-quality new cotton, and the demand for quality cotton will increase at the later stage. Therefore, the price of high quality cotton still has a certain rising space.

Enthusiasm for cotton planting has been affected by multiple factors, such as rising cost and falling cotton prices.

Nearly half of the farmers said they would reduce cotton planting area next year, according to the survey.

To sum up, the author suggests: first, we should further publicize the state's policy of collecting and storing the peasants, focusing on the requirements of the state's purchase and storage on cotton grades.

It is suggested that farmers should strengthen the quality management of cotton storage and not blindly sell them.

Hoarding cotton will only further reduce fiber quality, thereby affecting cotton prices and their own profits. Therefore, it should be sold by machine.

Second, take necessary measures to protect cotton farmers' enthusiasm for planting cotton and prevent a sharp drop in the area next year.

First, we should normalize the cotton purchase and storage policy in the future, and gradually move towards the lowest purchase price of cotton, so as to cultivate cotton for the farmers.

Two, we must continue to adhere to the cotton slip tax policy to protect the basic interests of domestic cotton farmers and the safety of China's cotton industry.

The three is to increase the state's support for the cultivation of cotton and reduce the pplanting of cotton after planting and stabilize the cotton area.

The four is to support cooperative organizations of cotton farmers and enhance farmers' ability to resist market risks.

The situation that small farmers face the changing market of cotton often can only passively become price receivers.

The cotton farmers cooperative organization will enhance the ability of cotton farmers to cope with market risks. Bargaining power in purchasing agricultural materials and selling cotton is obviously stronger than that of single farmers, and also has the advantage of scale in the fields of advanced technology promotion and unified prevention and control.

We should give necessary support to cotton farmers' cooperative organizations in terms of operation capital and technical services.
