Australia'S Cotton Industry: Obvious Advantages, Grading Standards, Detailed And Efficient.

< p > in the first half of 2013, Yancheng imported 168 batches of cotton, 59 thousand and 700 tons, with a value of 116 million 848 thousand and 800 US dollars.

Australia cotton continues to catch up with India cotton in the proportion of 11%.

It is understood that, due to the high consistency of quality indicators of Australia cotton, suitable for the "a target=" _blank "href=" http://www.91se91.com/ "> textile" /a "industrial demand, more and more favored by textile enterprises, so the import volume of Australia cotton has also increased significantly, becoming the new favorite of textile enterprises.

< p > Australia has a large scale of production and a high degree of mechanization.

The cotton planting area is stable around 5000 square kilometers, and the total yield of lint is 3 million bags.

Australia has 1500 cotton farms, an average farm area of 4 square kilometers (6000 acres), is China's average cotton planting area of 3 acres of 2000 times.

Due to the large scale and high cost of labor, the whole process of cotton production in Australia has realized mechanization, manpower input and production efficiency from site preparation, sowing, watering, fertilization, spraying to harvesting, pportation, processing and packaging.

The average yield per unit area of cotton in Australia is less than 1500~1600 kg / ha (100 kg / mu). Because of the same production pattern in the same area, the quality of P is very strong. It is suitable for the textile industry and has strong market competitiveness.

Australian cotton processing and trading enterprises are few, but the scale of enterprises is large, and because of the development of market economy for many years, the market operation is very standardized. Many enterprises are the entities of integration of production, marketing and marketing, and have strong ability to resist market risks.

< /p >

< p > it is worth mentioning that Australia's cotton production is all privately operated, and the state has no support policy for the production of < a href= "http://cailiao.sjfzxm.com/Matertial/show/default.aspx" > cotton < /a >. Therefore, the cotton farmers cooperative organization is very sound. There are 15 cotton growers associations in Australia, and Australian cotton industry jointly with various associations and industrial organizations.

The government attaches great importance to cotton research and technology extension, and production is closely integrated with scientific research.

Half of the research funds of cotton research institutes are issued by cotton farmers. The government has given the "one to one" matching, and the research results belong to the cotton farmers. The government has all the officials in the cotton producing areas specializing in the promotion of cotton technology, so the new varieties and new technologies can be applied to cotton production very quickly.

< p > because Australia's domestic cotton textile capability is very limited, 95% of the cotton is sold to the international market, so its production and operation activities and quality standard system are in line with international standards. The HVI large capacity tester is tested by package, and its test results are linked to cotton growers and Cotton Traders through computer network, which is convenient for cotton to be sold, stored, pported and used.

The Australian cotton industry supports an instrument based cotton grading system to continuously compare the chroma of Australian machines with the relevant visual chromaticity classification.

Except for chromaticity and leaf litter, all the characteristics were obtained by instrumental examination.

< /p >

< p > Australia does not specifically formulate the national cotton quality standard, nor does it have a specialized cotton grading inspection institution. All the cotton quality is held by the Cotton Corp.

In the past, Cotton Corp made reference to the US cotton standard to set up its own cotton standard. There was little difference in quality. The standard grade lint was SM grade, which is equivalent to the two level 29mm in China.

After the introduction of the large capacity tester HVI, the objective standard of cotton grading was established, and the level and efficiency of cotton quality inspection were improved.

At present, the proportion of HVI grading in Australia accounts for more than half of the total cotton output.

< p > Queensland cotton classification center can detect tens of thousands of cotton samples of more than 2000 tons of cotton every day, and the efficiency is quite high.

The bundled cotton sample is placed in the cotton sample plate according to its barcode number, and then the automatic temperature and humidity balance machine is used. After 10 minutes, the cotton sample can reach the temperature and humidity required for testing. The temperature of the whole testing room is stable at 20 degrees Celsius, and the relative humidity is stable at 65%, which is recorded by automatic recorder.

HVI test results were collected by computer network through Create V isual Classing2Buy Grade system, including cotton production year, farmer name, field, variety, ginning factory, name of inspector, dealer, batch number, package number and length, specific strength, micron value and other quality indicators, whether cotton farmers, distributors or cotton merchants can be found to facilitate quality pricing and sales.

< p > 2012, Jiangsu Port imported 216 thousand and 200 tons of Australian cotton, accounting for 14.8% of the total imports, second only to the United States cotton and India cotton.

The average non conformity rate of Australian cotton grade was 10.76%, the average length of non conformity rate was 1.12%, the average rate of non conforming of mcln was 3.01%, the average rate of non conformity was 1.55%, and the quality indexes were lower than that of imported cotton, and the overall quality was better than those of other countries.

< /p >

Australia is the fourth largest cotton exporter in the world after the United States, Uzbekistan and India. Its cotton is more than 95% used for export, its color is white, its strength is high, its quality is good. Its quality is second only to that of California cotton and Egypt high quality cotton. Its main body level is above three, and its internal quality and market price are between the cotton SJV ACALA (California ACALA Cotton Variety) and C/A (California / Arizona area). The quality of cotton fiber is generally 28 to 30mm, 30 to 32cN tex-1, 30 to 3.7 to 4.2 (HVI ICC standard).
