< p > according to statistics, Xinjiang is currently the largest commercial cotton production base in China. Its total output has accounted for 52% of the total output of the country and has become a major part of China's textile industry.

In 2012, Xinjiang's sales of clothing (clothing) enterprises of more than 5 million yuan reached 81, and clothing output reached 28 million 260 thousand.

The above scale textile enterprises completed the total industrial output value of 21 billion 500 million yuan.

< p > "textile and garment industry covers a wide range and has a long industrial chain. The characteristics of labor-intensive industries are very outstanding. Especially in the southern Xinjiang, the textile and garment industry is easy to achieve the industry of near employment."

Liang Yong, deputy director of the autonomous region, said that once the outline is implemented, it will have a significant impact on the development and employment of Xinjiang, and promote the pfer of the Eastern Textile Industry to Xinjiang.

< p > according to the introduction, Xinjiang has developed the textile "a href=" http://www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp > clothing industry < /a > obvious advantages. First, raw materials are abundant, and cotton output accounts for half of the national output. The two is that Xinjiang has abundant and cheap electricity resources, and the average electricity price is at a low level in the whole country. It is very advantageous for the textile and garment enterprises that account for the production cost of 10%-15%. The three is the geographical advantage of opening to the west, and the export of garments to Central Asia and Europe can significantly reduce the pportation time and logistics cost. Four, it is rich in land resources; five is the labor force affluent; in Xinjiang, nearly 600 thousand urban labor force needs employment every year, and about 2 million of the rural surplus labor force pfers jobs.

< p > according to the statistics of China's < a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp > > the textile industry < /a > Federation, in the first half of 2013, China's textile industry invested 391 billion 500 million, an increase of 15%, and the 12 western provinces invested 34 billion, an increase of 23.2%, much higher than the national average level. The textile industry to the West has become a trend of development, and it is very beneficial for Xinjiang to undertake the eastern industrial pfer.

< p > "advantages are many, but obstacles are obvious."

Xu Wenying, vice president of the China Textile Industry Federation, said that the adverse factors such as the rising labor costs, the low international demand, and the large difference between inside and outside cotton have adverse effects on the textile industry.

In particular, the domestic and international cotton price differential inversion phenomenon is particularly unfavorable for Xinjiang.

< /p >

< p > Xinjiang cotton textile enterprise mainly uses Xinjiang real estate cotton as raw material, the vast majority of pure cotton products, raw material cost accounts for about 75% of the total cost.

However, the annual quota of cotton imports to cotton textile enterprises in Xinjiang is very limited. In 2012, the amount of cotton imports actually accounted for only 0.43% of the total imports in the same period below a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp" > cotton < /a >, and most of the import quotas were trade flow enterprises. Xinjiang's development of other blended products was restricted by the vacancy of chemical fiber raw materials.

In recent years, as domestic and foreign cotton prices continue to widen, Xinjiang cotton textile enterprises compared with mainland enterprises, raw material costs are high, resulting in reduced competitiveness, underemployment, increased losses, production and operation difficulties.

< /p >

< p > according to Xu Jiping, commander in chief of Zhejiang Province, Xinjiang textile industry wants to achieve the goal of employment and 163 billion 500 million output value of millions of people in 2020. "The most important thing is to reduce costs, solve the problem of cotton price upside down, let Xinjiang cotton compete with the international cotton team, and second, implement the low price policy, improve the employment quality of the employed population, and change the concept of employment."
