< p > according to foreign news on August 1st, XiJin, a management member of China cotton net under the China cotton company, said that China's cotton output had dropped by 24%, as the government stopped its purchase of cotton from farmers.

Less than P, he said, it is expected that China's cotton output next year will drop to about 5 million tons, lower than the estimated 6 million 600 thousand tons this year.

< /p >

< p > he said that Chinese officials said they would try a direct subsidy system for cotton farmers in Xinjiang and replace the previous cotton purchase and storage projects supported by government funds.

< /p >
