Policy Impact On Cotton Prices When Market Subsidies "Landing"

In the early December, I saw in a lot of villages in the traditional cotton region, Quzhou County, Hebei province. Cotton farmers' households were stacked with stacked cotton, showing this year.

A bumper harvest.

In recent years, although the area of seed cotton has been decreasing year by year, many farmers are reluctant to give up planting cotton.

Qiao Bao Village, Huai Qiao Township, Liu Erhai said cheerfully: "cotton production this year is the highest in history. In the past, 500 acres of seed cotton per mu were produced. This year, it can produce 700 catties per mu, and individual can reach 800 catties of seed cotton, which has never had such a good year."

Many cotton farmers say that the weather is good this year. Cotton is not only high in yield, but also good in quality.

But when it comes to the price of cotton this year, cotton farmers suddenly lose their looks.

"The output is high, the quality is good, but the price is not good."

Zhang Zhuang village Zhang uncle said: "cotton hawker began to cotton in the village, 3.2 yuan per catty cotton seed, and now seed cotton prices have dropped to 2.9 yuan per catty, and no one has come to collect them.

Seed in previous years

The price is 6 yuan per catty, 4 yuan per catty cotton seed, and cotton farmers can play a tie. If they sell more than 2 yuan, cotton farmers will have to pay for it.

In cotton farmers' view, low cotton prices this year are related to the cancellation of temporary cotton purchase and storage policy.

In the past years, the price of national cotton reserves was guaranteed.

The temporary withdrawal and storage policy has been abolished this year, which has a great impact on the market.

Not long ago, cotton farmers heard about the state.

There are subsidies, but they hope that such a good policy can be landed as soon as possible, and formulate the issuing rules early, so that the cotton farmers will soon become steadfast.

Some cotton farmers said that in the newspapers, "we must give cotton to qualified cotton processing enterprises, and keep good sales of cotton bills, so as to avoid affecting subsidies."

However, in Quzhou County, the bill for which enterprises to sell cotton can only be subsidized, and the government needs to make clear provisions so as to ensure that the interests of cotton farmers are not lost.

Another cotton grower said that if there were no specific implementation measures before the lunar calendar year, the subsidy funds could not be released, and in the spring of next year, farmers would not have money in their hands, which would definitely affect production.
