Why Is The Price Of Seed Cotton Doubled In Shandong?

Can the price of seed cotton reach 7 yuan / jin? Many people do not dare to think about it. Even Xinjiang cotton growers also sigh: so high!

Where does the confidence of cotton farmers in Jinxiang come from?

In August 7th, the reporter came to a seed cotton high yield village in Jinxiang, Shandong. In recent years, due to the decrease in seed cotton prices, the area of cotton planting has been greatly reduced, and the original cotton fields have been planted with pepper and corn.

This village farmer Wang elder brother expects this year local cotton planting area to drop in 60-70%, moreover this year the rain is too many, the field falls the bud quantity to be many, estimated the unit output to drop 50 Jin / mu.

Brother Wang knows well how things are scarce, and combines the Yangtze River Valley.

Seriously affected, the new cotton market or will appear tight supply situation, this is one of the reasons why he is optimistic about the new cotton listed price.

Local cotton farmers have the habit of storing cotton, and the selling price before and after February 2016 is only about 2.2 yuan / kg, and now the purchasing prices of cotton traders are running at 4.2-4.3 yuan / Jin.

Cotton farmers selling cotton before and after the Spring Festival now regret that they sell at least 2 yuan per catty.

Coincidentally, last year, the local dry garlic sale price at 2.5-2.6 yuan / Jin, this year the price of new garlic (not dried) is 2.5-3 yuan / kg, garlic price is at least 2 yuan / Jin higher than last year.

Wang big brother thinks, since garlic price can double, why not cotton price?

In addition, there are some special situations in the village. It is not only garlic and cotton high yield villages, but also the farmers' economic conditions are relatively good. Therefore, after the new flower is listed, cotton farmers will not rush to sell, get the money to repay agricultural materials, loans and so on.

This year, local farmers who store garlic and cotton have tasted sweetness, which also makes many local farmers who are left or left behind envy.

If the price is lower than the cotton farmers' psychological price of 6.5 yuan / Jin, there will be a wind of reluctant sale. If local ginning mills believe that the price is too high to pay, they will not exclude the situation of high quality cotton purchase in the surrounding provinces.

Not only that, the new local small flower ginning factory in the new year has been eager to see the new trend, and is optimistic about the new year's C. Most of the expected price will be significantly higher than the scale of 2015, which also gives cotton farmers confidence.

Of course, the situation of cotton and garlic is not exactly the same. Cotton farmers say, "seed cotton".

The dream of doubling is always there. If it is realized, how about the price of seed cotton scale? Let's see the evolution of the market.
