Cotton import source countries and domestic import provinces and cities have not changed compared with 2012.

< p > 1. The main factor affecting cotton imports in the first half of the year is < /p >.

< p > 1, the supply of domestic cotton was relatively adequate in the first half of the year, the number of cotton reserves was increased, the structure of input was adjusted, and the total turnover was 1 million 910 thousand tons as of the end of May. At the same time, cotton imports increased too much in the same period last year. Cotton imports declined continuously from February to the same period since the total demand for cotton did not change significantly in the same period last year.

< /p >

< p > 2, due to the continued implementation of the policy of temporary storage and storage of cotton in 2013, the price difference between domestic and foreign cotton is still at the level of 3000 yuan to 4000 yuan / ton, and the domestic cotton price (328) is slightly down 0.2% compared with the same period last year.

Although cotton imports decreased in the first half of last year, cotton imports still maintained a higher import volume under the influence of domestic and foreign cotton prices and domestic cotton quality.

< /p >

< p > 3, the price of imported cotton fell sharply in 2013 compared with the same period last year, but the price ratio continued to rise, and the price fell narrower compared with the same period.

According to Chinese customs statistics, the unit price of imported cotton was 2.04 US dollars in May, and the unit price was 2.16 US dollars in June.

In June, it rose 15.5% from the beginning of the year, up 11.3% from April.

The import volume of cotton dropped sharply compared with the same period last year, although the import price increase still can not affect the import volume of cotton.

< /p >

< p > two, the contradiction between domestic and foreign cotton price formation mechanism has promoted cotton import demand < /p >

< p > China's cotton import has become a hot issue in recent years, on the one hand, because of the objective existence of cotton import demand, to meet the needs of exports, we must import a certain amount of cotton to supplement domestic cotton supply.

On the other hand, the domestic cotton price formation mechanism seriously deviates from the market, so that it affects the < a target= "_blank" href= "http://www.91se91.com/" > textile < /a > a target= "_blank" href= "http://www.91se91.com/" > clothing > export > and downstream enterprise production and operation.

In fact, the difference of cotton price formation mechanism at home and abroad is the fundamental reason for the upside down of cotton prices at home and abroad.

< /p >

< p > it is reported that the domestic cotton output in the 2012/2013 year is about 7 million 400 thousand tons, and the state has accumulated 6 million 500 thousand tons of cotton, accounting for 90% of the total cotton output in the country, and the circulation of cotton is in short supply.

Due to the serious decline in the quality of cotton reserves and the high price of storage and storage, the enthusiasm of cotton enterprises is not high enough to enhance their willingness to import cotton.

At present, domestic cotton import demand is mainly driven by price factors.

< /p >

At present, the competent authorities are deliberating the direct subsidy policy for cotton planting and promoting the return of cotton prices to the market. However, it is generally believed that the formulation and implementation of direct subsidy policy is faced with many difficulties and takes time. P
