What Impact Will The New Cotton Storage Standard Bring To The Cotton Industry?

< p > September 1st, the national reserve cotton will carry out the new standard.

Recently, the reporter learned from the Xinjiang production and construction corps cotton association that the new standard pays more attention to the internal quality of cotton, which has been changed from manual inspection to instrumental testing. It will have a greater impact on the whole < a href= "http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp" > cotton industry < /a > especially the machine picked cotton industry.

< /p >

< p > Xinjiang corps cotton association analysis, according to the new standard, machine picked cotton will be reduced to about 4, and in the past 2 to 3 levels, which means that cotton per ton will be reduced by about 500 yuan. If there is a problem in the processing link, it is possible to cause a drop in category, from white cotton to dirty cotton, and the yield of cotton per ton will drop more than 700 yuan.

< p > the people's Association of Cotton Association said that the main selling channel of Xinjiang and BINGTUAN Cotton was in storage, and the purchase price of national cotton was 20400 yuan / ton this year.

In order to ensure the quality of cotton, the cotton planting division must attach importance to harvesting and processing of machine picked cotton, increase equipment investment and enhance the ability of technological pformation, so as to reduce the number of cotton cleaning and reduce the internal quality of cotton during harvesting and processing.

According to statistics, this year, the Corps has 4 million 930 thousand mu of machine picked cotton, accounting for 59.8% of the total sown area of cotton.

< p > by calculation, the total cost of a cotton picker per mu is 737 yuan / mu, 2.2 yuan / kg for seed cotton, 900 yuan / mu for hand picked cotton, 2.57 yuan / kg for seed cotton, and 163 yuan for machine harvested cotton per mu.

The picking capacity of a cotton picker is equivalent to 30 days of labor and 50 days' pickup. This not only alleviates the problem of labor difficulty, but also speeds up the picking up process. Therefore, the large-scale use of cotton pickers is the general trend.

< p > facing the market demand of < a href= "http://cailiao.sjfzxm.com/Matertial/show/default.aspx" > cotton picker < /a >, the listed companies have "lurked".

Guihang stock has entered the Xinjiang market and set up a subsidiary company in Shihezi. The cotton picker has a certain market share.

Shandong's swan cotton machinery and other well-known domestic cotton equipment manufacturers have also landed in the Xinjiang market.

< /p >

< p > it is understood that in 2012, 200 cotton pickers of Xinjiang Shihezi Guihang Agricultural Machinery Equipment Co., Ltd. were ordered.

It is reported that the lowest price of a domestic cotton picker is around 1 million 200 thousand yuan, and the imported cotton picker is between 160 and 2 million yuan, which has a great cost performance advantage.

< /p >

< p > according to the data, from 2012 to 2015, < a href= "http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_p.asp" > Xinjiang < /a > will invest 1 billion 413 million yuan to build "12th Five-Year" China high quality cotton base, of which the planned machine building area will be 932 thousand mu, and the construction of the machine cotton picking facilities will be completed.

The total investment announced is 1 billion 413 million yuan, which is more than 56% of the total investment of the past 3 five year plans. This shows that the central government's support for Xinjiang's cotton industry has been significantly strengthened.
