Therefore, the cotton planting area of long staple cotton will increase greatly this year.

A cotton grower in Awati county introduced 30 mu of long staple cotton last year, with a yield of 330 kg / mu, an average price of 8.79 yuan / kg, and gross income of 2900 yuan / mu.

The subsidy policy stipulates that the area of long staple cotton and upland cotton is the same as that of partial subsidy.

Part of the subsidy standard is 0.893 yuan / kg, and the land cotton is 0.688 yuan / kg, so the subsidy amount for long staple cotton is 0.893 yuan / kg *320 equivalent to 295 yuan. The subsidy amount for the upland cotton is 0.688 yuan / kg *400 kg or 275 yuan, and the difference between the two is 20 yuan.

In 2014, most cotton farmers' long staple cotton yield was 350 kg / mu, which was more obvious than that of planting fine cotton. So in 2015, cotton growers in Xinjiang and the cotton growers in the mainland of China increased the planting area of long staple cotton.

It is understood that as of April 22nd, Akesu long staple cotton sowing rate has reached more than 75%, is expected to end by the end of this month.

This year only Awati County long staple cotton sown area may reach about 800000 mu.

In Akesu, other counties, flags, and Kashi, Korla and other places also sown area of 60-70 mu.

Although the ginning factory still adheres to the principle of "big asking for price" and "selling more and selling less", it has received some cold reception recently.

In particular, the head of the army is developing cotton.

The price of the 137 class long staple cotton platform is 28500 yuan / ton and 237 level is 27400 yuan / ton, which is only 200-300 yuan / ton higher than the price of the local cotton ginning factory.

However, the Corps produce long staple cotton with good consistency, high horse quality, less impurities and low water impurities, which is welcomed by downstream textile companies.

For the late trend of long staple cotton prices, some people believe that prices will rise, while others believe that prices will remain stable.

If the price of long staple cotton continues to rise, it needs strong support from downstream consumption.
