The Double Edged Sword Of China'S Cotton Purchasing And Storage Policy Has Become Increasingly Appeals.

< p > in the special period of cotton growers' cotton planting cost rising and textile enterprises being trapped, how should China's cotton policy go? How can we realize the sustainable development of the cotton industrial chain? The above question was most noted by the participants at the 2013 China International Cotton Conference held recently.

When cotton growers' enthusiasm for production can not be fully mobilized, and spinning enterprises are facing difficulties in purchasing cotton and buying cotton, the antagonistic relationship between policy regulation and market supply and demand is becoming increasingly prominent, and the current policy of purchasing and storage is also in some awkward position.

In response, the industry has appealed for the long-term development mechanism of cotton industry for cotton farmers and textile enterprises, which needs to be guided by market supply and demand.

Only if the market is the sails and the government controls the rudder, can the cotton industry become bigger and bigger.

< p > < strong > the double-edged sword of purchasing and storing policy < /strong > /p >

The temporary purchasing and storage policy of < p > 2013 has been announced, and the policy of reserve cotton has also been adjusted accordingly, which has increased the annual cotton output and expanded the purchase quantity of enterprises, and the reserve policy is constantly improving.

For the sustainability of the policy, the industry generally believes that further improvement is needed.

< p > Zhou Shengtao, President of the China Cotton Association, pointed out that the cotton policy of the Chinese government has played a positive role in stabilizing the cotton market, protecting the interests of cotton farmers, and ensuring the demand of < a target= "_blank" href= "http://www.91se91.com/" > textile /a >.

However, the upstream and downstream enterprises of the industrial chain also see that the adverse effects of these measures on the industrial chain can not be ignored.

< /p >

Since the beginning of this year, the purchasing and storage policy has been supporting the market to protect agriculture on the one hand, ensuring that the domestic market can run smoothly, and has also made strong support for the international market price. P

On the other hand, cotton inventories surged, especially in January of ~3 this year, when the storage and storage of cotton were carried out at the same time. The cotton trade almost occupied the whole circulation market, and the ability of the market to form its own price and allocate resources was weakened.

The policy of collecting and storing has evolved into a double-edged sword.

Under this situation, it is particularly important for the sustainable development of cotton industry to implement a long-term, flexible and active macroeconomic regulation mechanism.

Among them, we should comprehensively consider the grain and cotton price ratio, the basic income of cotton farmers and the difference between inside and outside cotton, and take the overall consideration of the bearing capacity of the textile enterprises and the reasonable profit margins of the circulation enterprises on the cotton industry.

It is the consensus of the industry to strengthen the regulatory role of the market and combine the macro regulation with the market rules.

< /p >

< p > some enterprises pointed out that the price formation mechanism of purchasing and storing and throwing away should take market factors into account.

"At present, the cost of purchasing and storing is mainly based on the cost of planting.

But this is only an element of market price formation. There are many other factors to consider.

We should consider market factors and supply and demand. "

"In normal terms, the state should reserve three months of cotton consumption," said Shi Kai Kai, director of China cotton group.

Without considering the decline of demand, it is advisable that the stock should be no more than 3 million tons per month with a standard of 900 thousand tons.

However, China's cotton reserves have reached 6 million 500 thousand tons, and its rationality remains to be discussed.

< p > Liu Xiaonan, deputy director of the Department of economic and trade of the State Development and Reform Commission, said: "every policy has its limitations. It is undeniable that the policy of temporary purchase and storage has led to the weakening of market regulation.

Not long ago, the NDRC held a meeting with relevant departments to study related issues, and explored how to further improve and improve the existing regulatory mechanisms and establish a long-term mechanism to promote the healthy development of China's cotton industry.

According to the statistics of the China Cotton Association, the cotton planting area in China is still in the downward trend in 2013, and will fall to the lowest level in nearly ten years, and it will fall below 70 million mu for the first time in the first ten years.

At the same time, the new generation of migrant workers' willingness to grow grain and cotton will reduce the number of cotton farmers, and the direct result is the increasing labor costs.

At present, the price of cotton picking in Xinjiang has risen from 0.5 yuan / kg ~0.8 yuan / kg a few years ago to the current 2 yuan / kg, and the cost of cotton planting has increased greatly.

< p > to observe the downstream of the industrial chain, the pressure of cotton spinning enterprises is more prominent.

Yang Shibin, assistant president of the China Textile Industry Federation, said: "the huge difference between domestic and foreign cotton prices has been pformed into cost pressure pmission to cotton spinning enterprises. Many enterprises have been forced to switch to chemical fibers instead of cotton fibers."

< /p >

< p > now, in a large shopping mall's < a target= "_blank" href= "http://www.91se91.com/" > clothing < /a >, one of 100% cotton clothing has been difficult to trace. Most of the fabrics are made of polyester fiber and cotton or acrylic fiber.

Statistics show that the amount of chemical fiber used in China is nearly 12 million tons per year, far exceeding cotton.

Zhu Beina, President of the China Cotton Textile Industry Association, is deeply moved by this: "in the case of rising cotton costs, downstream businesses are more likely to choose non cotton fibers.

In addition, enterprises also try to reduce cotton consumption on technology, such as spinning low count yarn and spinning high count yarn, which are also helpless choices.

< /p >

< p > the reduction of cotton growers has led to the upgrading of mechanized harvesting.

In addition, regional planting, intensive planting and large-scale planting will also be an important outlet for China's cotton industry.

In the face of "diversification" of cotton products, only benign regulation policies can make enterprises dare to use cotton and promote the better development of cotton industry.

< /p >

< p > < strong > cotton is becoming more and more appeals. < /strong > < /p >

In addition to increasing market regulation, the positive effects of cotton direct subsidy policy are also highly respected in the various voices of promoting cotton system reform. < p >

Ding Haowu, general manager of the national cotton trading market, believes that, based on the existing 20400 yuan / ton purchase and storage price, it can be considered that the direct purchase of the paction price from the state to the net price of the cotton farmers from the ginning factory and the processing plant to the market will be directly subsidized by the middle price difference of 20400 yuan.

"The advantage of doing this is that cotton farmers' interests can be guaranteed. The cotton mill can push the price to buy cotton farmers at 20400, and the price of 20400 yuan / ton can not be sold.

Second, the sale of this part of cotton through the market will promote market circulation.

Whether it is a textile enterprise or an intermediate business enterprise, after getting these cotton, it will be sold again and again after the textile mill is used or circulated. This is a decision made by the enterprise itself.

< p > in the international market, the United States has implemented the cotton direct subsidy policy. However, as Gao Fang, executive vice president and Secretary General of the China Cotton Association, said, no country's policies can be completely copied to China.

Especially for the complex direct subsidy policy, we need to proceed step by step.

Li Jianquan, chairman of the prudent group, believes that cotton direct subsidy needs to use value leverage and quota leverage.

"Nowadays, the area of seed cotton can be accurately measured to be per square meter, so subsidizing according to the area is not a difficult task.

In addition, we should support farmers from the aspects of cotton seed quality supervision and cost control technology, which is the mechanism for rapid and sustainable development.

Li Jianquan said.
