Cotton Picking Comes To An End, "Four Can Not Afford To Worry" Cotton Industry A Dragon

Here world

Xiaobian network to introduce to you is the cotton "four can not afford" worry industry.

Cotton picking is coming to an end in late autumn.

Compared with previous years, the market is quite different this year. The cotton industry has a phenomenon of "four can not afford to rise": low investment and low efficiency farmers can not afford to grow and can not afford to sell. The price of domestic cotton is high and quality is poor, and the enterprises can not afford it.

From planting, purchasing, storage to production, the whole industry can be summed up in one word: worry.

Farmers can not afford to grow up.

Worry about what to grow next year

Chen Shiping, a science and technology demonstration farm in the great embankment farm in Jianli, has planted 30 mu of cotton this year. He has roughly calculated the cost: the cost per mu is about 1025 yuan (including seeds, pesticides, whole field sowing, asking people to pick flowers, farmland rent, etc.), and the cost of 30 mu is 30750 yuan.

In terms of income, according to the local purchase price in October 20th, 2.9 yuan per catty cotton seed, 350 Jin per mu, and 30 mu total income 30450 yuan.

Two phase comparison, also lost 300 yuan.

Chen Shiping said that planting cotton for 20 years is the worst case this year. "Really can not afford to grow up" - it takes a long time. From sowing in April to picking up in November, the cotton growing cycle is 8 months, with many processes and high costs. Even other farmers are losing money.

Jingzhou Cotton Association statistics, the average cost of cotton seed in the city is 3.5 yuan per catty, the purchase price is less than 3.5 yuan, farmers lose money.

Last year, the area of the big embankment farm was 120 thousand mu, which was reduced by more than 50% by 58 thousand mu this year.

Everyone is worrying: what kind of money will we earn next year?

Farmers can not afford to sell -

The flower mill can not get flowers.

The crystal hair cotton industry of Gongan County port town is the 400 type of ginning plant designated by the provincial development and Reform Commission, and the flower peak was reached in October, but the factory was cold and clear.

Yesterday, the factory weigher and the pportation worker sat on the bench chatting, and the cotton rolling workshop was covered with dust. He Changda, director of the factory, introduced: "in October 1st, it started to scale, and on the 20 day it could not get 700 thousand kilograms of flowers, and it received 700 thousand jin in 1 days last year."

The dealer dragged a car to sell it.

Chen Jinguo, a trafficker, said farmers could not afford to sell, they were waiting for prices to rise.

On the 16 day, the Gongan County Cotton Association held a meeting. 9 cotton ginning plants of 400 types did not receive much cotton.

Jingzhou city cotton association responsible person Xuan Shen Kai said that the city's 37 400 type ginning plant, almost no driving ginning this year.

He Changda said that the flowers in the cotton ginning factory are closed, and their factories are state supporting enterprises. Now that they are not on the right track, they will face bankruptcy.

Enterprises can not afford to -

Worry about price and quality

Zhonghe textile company is the largest textile enterprise in Jingmen. It uses more than 6000 tons of domestic cotton in one year. At present, the cost of raw materials is high and the efficiency of enterprises is poor.

Lv Ning, deputy general manager of the company, introduced that the quota system for lint cotton in the past years was 4:1, that is, cotton textile enterprises only allowed 1 tons of imported cotton with 4 tons of domestic cotton.

The price of domestic cotton is 17250 yuan / ton this year, and the price of imported cotton is 14750 yuan / ton, with a difference of 2500 yuan.

The domestic cotton textile enterprises use high priced domestic cotton and export products are inferior to India, Vietnam and other textile enterprises, resulting in many enterprises losing and closing down.

Honghu Municipal Bureau of information bureau responsible person said, Honghu 6 cotton spinning enterprises all closed this year, an important reason is that the raw material cost is too high to afford.

High cost forces enterprises to pform.

Chung and textile used cotton instead of cotton last year.

The cancellation of temporary purchase and storage this year is good for cotton spinning enterprises, and can buy flowers in the market. However, the quality of domestic cotton is poor and spinnability is not high.

The state can not afford subsidies.

Cotton in stock

Gongan County Yin Du cotton industry company is a state designated collection and storage enterprise. Now it has 63 thousand tons of lint inventory, which is equivalent to two years' cotton production in Gongan County county.

Inside the company's warehouse, bales of cotton were neatly stacked on the roof, and some cotton bags also marked "2012" dates.

The company responsible person said that this year the state abolished the purchase and storage policy, the warehouse confiscated 1 pounds of flowers, the state allocated 6 million 300 thousand yuan per year.

Jing storage cotton industry is also a state designated storage and storage warehouse. Xiong Chuanzhi, the head of the warehouse, introduced 11 million tons of stock in the whole country, and the state allocated 11 billion yuan for the storage fee each year.

Moreover, over the past 3 years, the state has been collecting and storing cotton at a high price to protect the interests of cotton farmers, 20 thousand yuan per ton of lint, and 6000 yuan more than imported cotton.

These cotton are put for more than one year, the quality is inferior to one grade, the state loses huge, and the government enterprises are worried about how to throw away the burden.

Behind the "four failure" phenomenon --

Policy and market superposition

Hsin Shen Kai said that the current national cotton inventory of 11 million tons accounted for about 60% of the world, according to the WTO agreement, 2014 to 2015 also imports 2 million tons, the domestic cotton consumption per year 9 million tons, the supply of serious excess, so the state abolished the temporary purchase and storage policy this year.

Market and policy superimposed, prices downward, conduction to the entire industry, resulting in "four can not afford" phenomenon.

Therefore, the adjustment of planting structure is imperative.

This spring, the Provincial Department of Agriculture issued a circular requiring agricultural departments to guide farmers not to grow or grow less cotton. The national policy adjustment signal is very clear; industrial upgrading is also imminent.

For example, Jianli County launched this year's new Shengyuan textile, spending heavily from Germany.

The world's advanced air spinning equipment is highly automated. 22 machines only need 2 people to watch and control, greatly reducing production costs, and products exported to Europe and the United States.
