Cotton Market: Achieving The Goal Of Multi-Channel Sale Of Cotton In Xinjiang

At the end of 2015, cotton prices continue to pick up. Why will the cotton planting area continue to decline this year? Unlike the previous two years, this decline is caused by the adjustment of local planting structure, so that areas where cotton is not suitable for cotton production should be removed from cotton cultivation, and agricultural production should be developed according to local conditions as soon as possible.

Since the implementation of the cotton temporary purchase and storage policy and the market target price policy in Xinjiang cotton market, local institutions and cotton growers will enhance the competitiveness of Xinjiang's cotton market and increase the share of Xinjiang's cotton market, so as to achieve the goal of multi-channel sale of cotton in Xinjiang.

Recently, the new year

Regional cotton production situation has been exchanged with relevant institutions and professionals.

Judging from the obvious characteristics of Xinjiang's cotton market in the new year, it shows the characteristics of continuous drop in area, increase in yield per unit area, improvement in quality, optimism of cotton growers and prudence of cotton ginning plants.

Among them, the upgrading of cotton quality will change the supply structure of domestic cotton market, boost the overall price of cotton and increase the income of cotton farmers.

In 2014, the cotton planting area in Xinjiang was 29 million mu, and the planting area decreased by 4 million 650 thousand mu to 24 million 350 thousand mu in 2015. The planting area decreased by 1 million 500 thousand mu to 22 million 850 thousand mu this year.

According to the experience of production estimation in the past years, combined with the actual cotton planting area in Xinjiang this year, which may be higher than the statistical data of the cotton related agencies in various parts of the country, it is expected that this year's Xinjiang

It's 3 million 600 thousand to 3 million 800 thousand tons.

According to the reasons for the continuous decline of cotton planting area, the key point of 2014 and 2015 is the low purchase price of seed cotton. In addition, in these two years, there were also disastrous weather in some parts of Xinjiang, resulting in a decline in cotton yield per unit area, which reduced the income of cotton farmers. Some cotton farmers reduced their cotton planting area and changed corn (1452, 22.00, 1.54%), wheat and other crops in order to reduce losses.

Zhou Wenke, research director of the earth futures research and development department, told reporters that according to Xinjiang 1 to 8 September

According to the survey, the production situation of the largest cotton producing area in China is better in the new year.

The cotton production area in Xinjiang cotton production area this year involves about 18 million mu, accounting for 78.8% of the total cotton growing area in Xinjiang. The expected output is 3 million 40 thousand tons, an increase of 70 thousand tons over the same period last year.

In 2015, the cotton planting area in this area was about 19 million mu, accounting for 78% of the total cotton growing area in Xinjiang in 2015, and the output was 2 million 970 thousand tons, accounting for 83.9% of the total cotton output in Xinjiang.

According to our survey, the average yield of cotton in this region is 168.4 kg / mu after the average yield per unit of cotton this year. In 2015, the average yield per unit area was 156.7 kg / mu. The average yield per unit area increased by 11.7 kg / mu, an increase of 7.45%. If the average seed yield per 40 hectare is broken, the yield per mu will be raised 30 kg.

Zhou Wenke said that the cotton fields with increased yield per unit area were mainly concentrated in the production and Construction Corps, and the yield per unit area in the local cotton fields changed little.
