Cotton Subsidies Progress And Amount Of Concern

By January 2015, with the imminent approach of cotton target price subsidies in Xinjiang, the progress and amount of follow-up subsidies have attracted much attention. Although the central government allocated 3 billion 500 million yuan in Xinjiang for the long time, the cotton farmers generally expect to get full subsidies as soon as possible. A cotton grower in Xinjiang said to reporters: "at present, seed cotton has already been sold out, and now it is in the slack season, looking forward to the subsidy message all day long, hoping to get the surplus subsidy as soon as possible, and the income of cotton planting last year, so as to plan the production work this year."

Cotton farmers eagerly hope that the mood of subsidies can be understood, and at the same time, as policy implementation departments, we need everyone's understanding. As related people said, this year is the first year of cotton target price subsidy policy implementation, the situation is very complicated, the government needs time to straighten out. Indeed, cotton target price subsidies involve the interests of all parties in the cotton industry chain, and the government needs time to seriously consider all aspects.

According to the reporter's understanding, at present, the relevant government departments of the state are in the process of arranging late subsidies. Hu Fangyi, deputy director of the Finance Office of the autonomous region, told the media that the national development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of finance were working on the news briefing on the cotton target price reform trial held in December 23rd. cotton The subsidy standard is studied and formulated, and the subsidy standard and sales volume of cotton area are made. subsidy The standards will be announced in January 2015 and February.

Aiming at the recent average market price For the "13500 yuan / ton" and the total subsidy amounted to 25 billion yuan (total subsidy) rumors, according to reporters, this is only a personal academic prediction. According to the implementation plan of Xinjiang cotton target price reform pilot work, before the end of December, according to the difference between target price and market price and the Xinjiang cotton output surveyed by the National Bureau of statistics, the state decided the total amount of subsidy funds, and then allocated the Xinjiang autonomous region and the production and Construction Corps separately.

According to the reporter's understanding of the subsidy quota from the relevant channels, we take Xinjiang as an example. If the total amount of local subsidies in Xinjiang is 10 billion (in order to facilitate the calculation of the assumed figures), the first step is that the autonomous region government should pay 60% of the area and 40% of the output subsidy rules, of which 6 billion will be used for area subsidies and 4 billion for production subsidies. Second steps will be achieved by dividing Xinjiang by 6 billion with the total area of the subsidy accords to the local government. By dividing 4 billion by the amount of cotton seed that can be subsidized locally, we get the allowance per kilogram of seed cotton. Of course, this is an average value, and it may also take into account the situation of seed cotton padded clothes and water impurities.
