Xinjiang'S Cotton Production Has Entered A New Market Environment.

In 2014, the state took the lead in carrying out the pilot project of cotton target price reform in Xinjiang, and explored a new mechanism for separating cotton prices from subsidies. Through the implementation of this new subsidy mode, the cotton production mode of Xinjiang was forced to reform, so that cotton could continuously concentrate on suitable cotton areas, improve the scale of cotton planting and enhance the efficiency of cotton planting.

Since the implementation of the reform in the past year, there has been a big adjustment in the planting structure of our region, and cotton production has entered a new market environment.

What has been achieved in this year's reform? How will the cotton production be further deepened in the future? In December 7th, the reporter interviewed Li Deming, director of the crop management department of the Agriculture Department of the autonomous region.

Planting structure was optimized for cotton.

In the past year, the biggest change of cotton production in our region has been the decline of planting area. Some areas that are not suitable for planting cotton are gradually withdrawing from cotton planting, and cotton recycling has become a hot word in the adjustment of agricultural structure.

Li Deming said that at the beginning of this year, the autonomous region jointly issued the notice on conscientiously doing the work of reducing cotton planting area and issued a reduction of 4 million 665 thousand mu of cotton.

The guiding plan.

From the completion of the situation, the whole area actually reduced cotton planting area by 5 million 109 thousand mu, and completed 109.5% of the reduction plan area.

Li Deming introduced that in the coming period, the leading position of cotton in the planting industry of our region is hard to be replaced.

Combined with the national cotton target price reform pilot work, cotton planting in our region will further concentrate on High-yield fields.

The cotton production in the whole region will adhere to the principle of "reducing the area, optimizing the layout, focusing on single unit production, increasing total production, reducing costs, saving cost and increasing efficiency". The risk cotton area and sub suitable cotton area should be resolutely withdrawn, and suitable areas with good soil and water conditions in the cotton region should be reasonably planted instead of crops according to market demand, farmers' planting habits and comparative benefits.

It will also combine.

The construction plan of 10 million mu high yield cotton field will focus on the implementation of 9 major projects, namely, scientific and technological innovation projects and high-yield construction projects in 24 cotton producing counties.

While the cotton area has been reduced, the internal structure of the cropping industry is also adjusting at the same time.

Li Deming introduced that in the reduction of priorities, the whole region focused on increasing the area of wheat and stabilizing the income of farmers.

According to statistics, in the area of 5 million 109 thousand mu of cotton in the region, 1 million 5 thousand mu and 1 million 181 thousand mu of wheat were replanted, and 2 million 769 thousand acres of special economic crops such as processing tomato, processing pepper, alfalfa, melon and fruit were cultivated, and 154 thousand Mu were fallowed.
