According to the latest monitoring of the association, due to the influence of a cold air on the south of Hunan, there will be continuous rain and clear weather in most parts of the country. The temperature will be low in other parts of the country except for the high southwest of Hunan Province. The precipitation in other areas will be more than that in the south of Hunan Province.

Rainy weather is more, the cooling range is relatively large. Prolonged low temperature and low illumination will have some adverse effects on the picking and sale of cotton in Hunan.

According to the Hunan agricultural meteorology monthly report, in the middle of November, the cold air activities in Hunan were frequent and the air temperature dropped rapidly. The days of precipitation in most parts of Northwestern Hunan and southeastern Hunan were 4-5 days, and ten days of precipitation. Most of the cotton planting areas in Northern Hunan were more than 101-302%. Compared with the whole year, the number of Xun sunshine hours in Xiangxi, Hunan and southeastern Hunan was less than 2-18 hours.

According to the forecast of the Provincial Meteorological Observatory, it is estimated that from late November to early December, the average temperature of the Northern Hunan is 8-9 degrees, the extreme minimum temperature is 3-4 degrees, and the rainfall is more than ten days.

At present, cotton picking work is developing in full swing in our province. At present, the cotton picking amount is about 85% in the whole province, but at the same time, the excessive rain and less sunshine will bring certain influence to cotton picking and drying in our province.

This year, because of the 2012 national cotton temporary

The price of seed cotton and lint sale did not show any ups and downs for the time being, and prices were relatively stable.

However, affected by the price difference between international cotton prices and domestic cotton prices (the international cotton price is around 14500 yuan / ton, domestic cotton price is around 18600 yuan / ton), the continuous downturn in the textile industry and the cotton demand in the market are not strong. In addition, the cotton purchase funds in Hunan province are relatively tight this year, and the restrictive acquisition of enterprises has occurred. The overall sales progress of the whole province is about 60%, and the speed needs to be speeded up.

Since the beginning of the new cotton scale in 2012, cotton prices have seen a trend of low opening and low walking in the cotton market. Although cotton prices have not reached the psychological expectations of cotton farmers in our province, most cotton farmers have accepted the overall situation of cotton market this year, but cotton farmers generally believe that the price of cotton flowers is still low this year, and the prospect of planting cotton next year is not optimistic.
