Purchase And Sale And Production Of Cotton In Sheyang County Of Jiangsu In Recent Two Years

Cotton purchase and sale in 2011

Sheyang County Cotton Association statistics, in 2011 the county cotton planting area of 525 thousand mu, an increase of 73 thousand mu, an increase of 16.2% over the previous year; the average yield per unit area was 72 kg, a decrease of 4.5 kg from the previous year, 5.9% reduction; the total output of 37000 tons, an increase of 2400 tons over the previous year, an increase of 6.9%; the total volume of acquisition was 36700 tons, an increase of 2500 tons over the previous year, an increase of 2500.

However, due to the fact that the international economic situation has not improved significantly, domestic and foreign trade orders have been reduced, textile enterprises' demand for cotton is still weak, and the supply of cotton exceeds supply, and the supply of imported cotton is adequate.

The reasons for the spread are many different reasons. After the listing of new cotton, the purchase and sale situation of the whole county is very strict. The purchase price of cotton continues to go down, the cotton farmers' income drops sharply, the price of the lint sale is strong, and the losses of cotton enterprises tend to aggravate.

1, cotton purchasing prices continue to decline.

The purchase price of cotton in 2011, despite the support of the state's temporary purchasing and storage policy, but the demand for cotton market is not strong. The acquisition and processing of cotton in the county is dominated by small packages. The maturity of cotton is delayed and the grade is low, so that 90% of cotton can not be imported into the state.

In early October, when the scales were opened, the average price of seed cotton was around 8.5 yuan per kilogram. From late October, cotton seed prices continued to drop, and cotton companies also lowered their purchase price to less than 0.2 yuan per kilogram. After entering November, cotton prices continued to increase, the average price was around 7.7 yuan, and the price of cotton ripening and rain drenched cotton was lower, only 7.2 yuan. After December's entry to the finishing line, some cotton color was not very good, and brokers bought only about 5 yuan.

According to the County Cotton Association statistics, the average annual purchase price of the cotton enterprises in the county is 429 yuan, which is only 7.76 yuan. Because of the cotton farmers' sale, more than 90% of the households sold cotton to the brokers at home, and the average price actually received was only 7.3 yuan, which was reduced by 3.54 yuan, or 32.66%, over the previous year of 10.84 yuan.

2, cotton yields have declined significantly.

Affected by the overall upgrading of fixed costs, materialized inputs and labor and labor prices, the cost of planting cotton in the county once again exceeded 1000 yuan, reaching 1413.2 yuan, an increase of 194.7 yuan over the previous year of 1218.5 yuan, an increase of 16%.

The income of cotton planting, including the subsidy of the national fine varieties, is only 1409.3 yuan, and the net income after the cost is -3.9 yuan, even if the income from self employed workers is only 848.1 yuan, which is 1010.8 yuan lower than the previous year, and the reduction is as high as 54.38%.

3, the price of lint sale is strong.

The monthly report of cotton sales situation of the county cotton association shows that the average monthly sales price close to the state's temporary purchase and storage price is only 2 months after the annual new cotton listing. One is September last year, the other is February this year. Other months are falling, and the trend is strong.

In February, the average price of cotton grade standard lint in the county was 19700 yuan per ton, 19550 yuan in March, 0.76% yuan in the same month (the same below), 19400 yuan in April, 0.77% in decline, 19050 yuan in May, 1.8% in June, 18600 yuan in June, 2.36%% lower.

Starting in the middle of July, with the gradual reduction of cotton stocks in cotton spinning enterprises and the normal stock of products, the new cotton market will take time, and the new cotton annual national temporary purchase and storage price has been clearly indicated. To the warehouse (all cotton stocks in the county are basically hoarding in the rural commercial banks' quality warehouse), the number of customers to see the goods negotiation has increased, and the paction prices of all grades of cotton have also been raised by 200-300 yuan, but due to the reduction of sales volume, the monthly average price is only 18450 yuan, which is 150 yuan lower than that in June, while the decrease of the ring ratio is 1.55 percentage points lower than that of last month, but it still achieves 0.81%.

Compared with the same period last year, the price difference also reached 4050 yuan, down 18% compared to the same period last year.

Although the price of cotton increased again in August, the average monthly price of standard lint reached 18580 yuan, an increase of 130 yuan, but it was still not enough to smooth the expenses of the month, including interest on capital.

The year-on-year price differential also shrank to 1000 yuan, but the drop is still around 5%.

4, the loss of cotton enterprises tends to aggravate.

From the annual acquisition and sale of cotton storage enterprises, enterprises are suffering from the test of losses.

From the start of the acquisition to the end of the acquisition, the average purchase price of the 4 grade seed cotton per kilogram was 7.8 yuan, and the average selling price of cotton seed per kilogram was 2.028 yuan per kilogram and the average clothing rate was 38%. According to the 800 yuan calculation of processing fee (not considering the depreciation of fixed assets), the guaranteed cost of cotton per ton reached 18071 yuan. After the end of the acquisition, the expenditure for each month, including the hoarding and occupying interest rates, was at least 208 yuan. From the end of the month, the total cost of increasing the cost reached 1040 yuan, making the basic cost of the cotton reached 19111 yuan, while the average selling price of the 4 grade cotton in May was only 19111 yuan, so that the actual loss amount per ton of lint exceeded that of the winning yuan. Some cotton business executives told us that the new cotton market was coming from the year.

After that, the sales price of cotton fell and the cost increased steadily, which made the loss of the enterprises more serious.

5, sales progress and inventory situation.

Although the sale of lint sales in the whole county is basically at a loss since March, enterprises still tend to throw them out as soon as possible.

The reasons are: first, the import of cotton is abundant, quality and cheap, and its advantages are obvious, attracting many textile enterprises.

The two is the new cotton annual national cotton purchase and storage price, which will affect the late cotton market.

Three, the difficulties faced by textile enterprises are still hard to break through, and the weak demand will continue.

Therefore, the monthly sales volume of cotton in the county is slightly stable.

County Cotton Association statistics, in 2011, cotton enterprises in the county acquired a total of 36700 tons of lint (converted), and by September 10th, it had sold 36400 tons, accounting for 99.2%.

Among them, 3500 tons of storage, accounting for 34% of the 400 type enterprises, accounted for only 9.6% of the total purchase of the county.

At present, inventory is less than 300 tons, and is expected to be cleared in recent days. From last year to the end of 9, there is still 1800 tons of cotton stock.

It is clear that cotton sales in this year are better than last year.

Cotton production in two and 2012

According to the cotton production in 2012, the County Cotton Association conducted a follow-up investigation from the cotton field preparation. At present, the overall situation is that the area is reduced, the cost is increased, the unit yield is increased, and the total output decreases.

1, the area is reduced.

Last year

This year, the cotton planting area of the whole county has been greatly reduced.

County Cotton Association survey, the actual planting area is only 350 thousand mu, 175 thousand mu less than last year, a decrease of 33.3%.

In contrast to the 10 consecutive years before 2008, the average area of cotton planting 650 thousand mu per year was 45.2%.

2, the cost is rising.

County Cotton Association tracking survey, this year in the cotton production cost input, although in addition to the agricultural film, including seeds, pesticides, fertilizers, etc., the retail price of various kinds of means of production has a range of 5%-10% growth. However, due to the reduction of the amount of cotton planted in the outsourced fields, and the actual consumption of fertilizers, pesticides and other materials, the fixed cost and physical and chemical costs have declined a certain percentage over the previous year.

These include the fixed cost of land rent, overall payment, water charges and agricultural machinery depreciation, which is 86.5 yuan, a decrease of 8.95 yuan and a decrease of 9.38% compared with that of the previous year. The cost of physicochemical (including seeds, fertilizers, pesticides, film and seedling supplies) was 367.78 yuan, a decrease of 14.19 yuan compared with that of the previous year, and the reduction was 3.71%.

However, the substantial increase in labor costs has led to an upward trend in total cost of cotton planting.

By the end of 8, the average amount of expenditure, including labour and land rent, had reached 1055.53 yuan, an increase of 25.16 yuan compared with the same period last year, an increase of 2.44%.

Plus some fertilizer, pesticides and labor costs that need to be invested later, it is estimated that the total annual investment will reach 1498.7 yuan, an increase of 85.41 yuan compared with the same period, an increase of 6.04%.

3. Yield forecast.

According to the investigation of cotton seedling in the county in September 10th, the output per unit area of cotton in this county will be higher than that of last year. However, due to the decrease of cotton planting area, the total output will still decrease.

The survey showed that the average density was 1611 plants, 6 fewer than the previous year. The average effective bud of the plant was 11, which was 1.1 more than that of the previous year; 0.8 flowers were on the same day, 0.16 less than that of the previous year; 11.4 small ones, 0.1 more than the same year, and 20.9 large bell, 1.5 more than the same year.

According to the existing seedling conditions, 28.7 single bolls were broken.

Among them, 1.3 were peach, 11.7 were peach, 15.7 were autumn, 0.1, 1.7 and 0.8 respectively, and 46 thousand of the total.

According to the above indicators, according to the above indicators, the county cotton association calculated that the output per kilogram was 76 kg, an increase of 4 kg, an increase of 5% or so over the previous 16.5 kg.

The total output of 27 thousand tons, down nearly 10 thousand tons, or 27%.

4, harvest expectations.

After entering the "White Dew" period, the whole county appeared another rainy and rainy weather for nearly a week, which had some effects on the later growth of cotton and the cracking of bolls and bolls. However, due to the fine weather in the preceding period, the growth period of cotton was earlier than that of last year.

At present, there has been mass picking, especially in the eastern coastal area and some cotton fields covered with plastic film mulching. The amount of seed cotton has been over 25 kg.

According to the cotton growers, the new cotton production time was 10 days earlier than last year.

The time for cotton enterprises to buy scales is also ready to start in late September, a week ahead of last year.

At present, all preparations for the acquisition of new cotton in the county are in an orderly manner. Apart from the normal repair and maintenance of machine repair equipment, site environment finishing and training of key post personnel, there are two key aspects: first, rational distribution of sites, so as to facilitate the sale of cotton farmers and effectively solve the "cotton selling difficulty" of cotton farmers.

Two is to raise funds, resolutely put an end to the "white strip" incident and earnestly protect the interests of cotton farmers.

Three. Suggestions on how to do cotton work in 2012.

Before the arrival of the new cotton year, the cotton association of Sheyang county made some investigations on how to do well in the acquisition of new cotton this year and promote the smooth operation of the cotton market.

Cotton growers, cotton enterprises and textile enterprises have their own views and put forward some suggestions and requirements.

1, rational response to the cotton market situation.

Since the beginning of this year, the import and export of textiles such as cotton and cotton yarns and grey fabrics, the production and operation of domestic textile enterprises and cotton consumption, the availability of global cotton resources, the number of domestic cotton stocks at the end of the year, and the national cotton temporary purchase and storage price in 2012 have been consolidated. The cotton purchase and sale situation in the new cotton market is still grim, and the weakening of the cotton market will continue.

Therefore, it is suggested that the government and its relevant departments should step up propaganda and timely pfer the cotton purchase and storage policy, market dynamics and price information to millions of households, and do a good job of publicity and interpretation so that all parties involved in the cotton industry can have a good mentality and rationally respond to the trend of the cotton market. After the new cotton market is launched, efforts will be made to make cotton farmers reluctant to sell and cotton enterprises do not hoard, so as to jointly create a good atmosphere for the smooth operation of the cotton market.

2, strictly enforce the cotton purchase and storage price policy.

Since September 10th, the national cotton temporary purchase and storage has been launched, which will be more conducive to the stability of the cotton market and the protection of cotton farmers' interests.

In order to carry out the policy well, it is suggested that the relevant departments of the government: first, track the implementation of the purchase price of cotton enterprises, so that the state can give up all or part of the price increase to the cotton growers.

Two, we must monitor the market prices of cottonseed and other main by-products, and try to avoid the low price of raw materials and high priced products sold in the intermediate links.

The three is to stabilize the purchase price of cotton in the framework of purchasing and storing prices, and practically avoid all acts that harm the interests of cotton farmers.

3, pay attention to the improvement of cotton quality.

In recent years, the main reason for the decline of cotton grade quality is the larger proportion of human factors.

Therefore, we must unswervingly carry out the implementation of the cotton quality management regulations, implement the newly revised cotton national standards, and focus on improving the quality of cotton picking, selling and processing.

First, we should guide cotton farmers to focus on picking and selling quality, and eliminate the cotton that has not yet been thoroughly picked after cracking the bell, and eliminate the "three silk" mixing in the process of picking and selling, so as to put an end to the unsold cotton.

The two is to reject adulterated cotton.

In the process of acquisition, enterprises will be encouraged to sort out cotton mixed with new Chen mixed with grey mixed valve, otherwise they will be rejected.

Three, quality supervision and inspection departments should strengthen supervision, encourage enterprises to batch processing, strictly abide by the processing flow, and comprehensively enhance the processing quality of cotton so as to meet the needs of textile enterprises in cotton production.

4, raise funds through various channels and guard against the phenomenon of "ious" seriously.

Capital is the guarantee of acquisition.

In recent two years, the operation of cotton enterprises is not very good. Some enterprises have been losing money for a long time, and their own funds have been exhausted. The interest rate of private lending is high, the risk of profit is large, and the collaboration funds are hard to get in place, which makes the demand for bank loans significantly enlarged, and the situation of tight bank funds is hard to improve.

Therefore, we must make early preparations and adopt a multi channel and equal emphasis approach to raise the acquisition funds.

First, policy based loans.

The agricultural development bank is the policy bank of the state's agricultural product purchase loan, and it should continue to support the enterprises that meet the requirements of the state's collection and storage.

The two is pledge loan.

Credit enterprises continue to use inventory pledge, effective asset mortgage and all other means to meet the requirements of bank lending, and strive for the amount of commercial banks' acquisition loans.

The three is to speed up capital turnover.

The method of acquisition, processing and sales should be carried out at the same time to speed up the withdrawal of funds and raise the utilization ratio of funds, so as to ensure that all cotton acquisitions are cash cashed.

5, strengthen policy control and boost market confidence.

First, the state should attach great importance to the pressure brought to the textile enterprises and circulation enterprises by the excessive price difference between domestic and foreign cotton, appropriately reduce the final inventory of domestic cotton, and determine the quantity of imported cotton and the time of issuing the quota, and create a favorable market environment.

The two is to strengthen the quota control of imported cotton.

It is necessary to improve the proportion of quotas issued by cotton enterprises, enlarge the delivery area appropriately, track the quotas, and recover the imported cotton indicators in a timely manner, eliminate quota speculation and prevent quota commercialization, so as to maintain the stability of domestic cotton market order.

The three is to promote domestic cotton consumption and reduce domestic inventory pressure by means of quotas or financial subsidies and tax adjustment.

Smooth operation.
