Cotton Target Price Reform Pilot In Xinjiang Has New Initiatives

Xinjiang held the 2015 cotton target price reform pilot work to start the teleconference. The revised and improved "Xinjiang cotton target price reform pilot project implementation plan" will be fully implemented in the near future, more new initiatives will be applied to the 2015 cotton target price reform pilot work, and promote the pformation and upgrading of Xinjiang's cotton industry.

Compared with 2014, the biggest change of the pilot work of cotton target price reform in 2015 is the change of subsidy mode.

"To improve the cotton target price reform in 2015, the most important thing is to further improve the subsidy mode."

Liu Weidong, director of the agricultural products and water resources price division of the NDRC, said that in 2014, Xinjiang adopted the subsidy method of "area + sales volume", that is, 60% was distributed according to the production area, and 40% was issued according to the sales volume. In 2015, it will be adjusted to determine the subsidy level mainly according to the output.

In 2015, the cotton target price reform pilot in Xinjiang has new initiatives. This exploration to promote the reform of the price formation mechanism of agricultural products and the decoupling of government subsidies, will sum up experience and deficiencies on the basis of 2014, and further escalate to further protect the interests of cotton farmers, further play the role of market regulation of production structure, further reduce the intermediate links, and improve the efficiency of financial subsidies.

In 2014, the state was in

In the first year, the cotton prices have been continuously improved. Cotton production structure has been continuously optimized, and cotton production structure has been gradually concentrated in high-yield cotton areas. Downstream processing enterprises have made technological pformation in cotton processing technology to meet the needs of cotton enterprises.

This series of practices, which are different from the past ones, are benefited from the guidance and promotion of the key factor of cotton price. After the cotton price is in line with the market, the promotion and drive of the related industries are emerging.

But as a pilot work, as long as there are

The optimization space will not stop.

The specific implementation plan is: annual availability

90% is used to pay part of the subsidy for the actual growers in the region, and 10% is used to subsidize the basic farmland (including collective land) of the four prefectures in southern Xinjiang (Akesu, Kashi, Ke Zhou and Hotan).

The cotton growers in the four prefectures of Southern Xinjiang will also receive certain subsidies according to their planting area. "This will help improve the income of cotton farmers in four prefectures in southern Xinjiang and raise their overall income level."

Liu Weidong said.

Liu Weidong said that this reform should take into account the dual needs of Xinjiang's cotton production structure optimization and the increase of farmers' income. Subsidized by sales volume will help to avoid false reporting of cotton planting area to defraud subsidy funds, and at the same time, it can also promote cotton producers to increase production efficiency and increase cotton production.

In the long run, it will also help to optimize the cotton production structure in Xinjiang, so that cotton production will gradually be concentrated in high-yield areas and the level of intensive development will be enhanced.
