The Mainland: Cotton Farmers Sell Cotton And Sell Cotton Products For Money.

At the end of the year, the price of cotton in the mainland rose slightly, but did not reach the psychological expectations of cotton farmers. When the new cotton came into the market this year, the information workers learned from the market survey that farmers in Yancheng and Nantong in Northern Jiangsu Province, Jiangsu, combined with the production and marketing situation of local agricultural products and the cost of cotton production, gave an acceptable price of seed cotton at 3.50 yuan / Jin, but the recent local cotton purchase price was not so high.

Although some companies understand that it is difficult to gather the seeds and cotton scattered in the farmlands economically and effectively for processing, they are unwilling to attract resources at an over market price. They also increase the price adjustment risk factors in the procurement of raw materials, such as setting up the ceiling price and controlling inventory turnover. However, the private traders bought and collected the cotton which was scattered around the people. The actual income of the farmers was not as good as that of the enterprises. The reason was that the amount of cotton that the private traders could not receive was not guaranteed because of the less cotton resources they owned. Two, the oil consumption and labor in the acquisition process were fixed, which is undoubtedly an inherent cost, and the operators only promoted the cost reduction by pressing the price and so on. Therefore, farmers usually sell cotton at home, and prices generally fluctuate at 3 yuan / Jin. Most cotton farmers are hard to fulfill.

Thus, in the cotton area of the Yangtze River Valley such as Jiangsu and Anhui, few cotton farmers began to deal with cotton. More cotton was processed by self rolling, and cottonseed was sent to the small oil mill to add oil. The information staff visited several cotton processing shops in Dafeng, Yancheng. The shopkeeper reflected that the current business of cotton ginning and spring Flos was very good. They had been discharged into the Spring Festival, and the new ones could only be processed after the Spring Festival. A couple from Wenzhou, Zhejiang, who worked in Dafeng for twenty-four years, said: "in the past two years, there has been very little cotton in the mainland. Many of the old farmers have grown cotton from their own homes and sold them to families with red and white happiness. Some of them have been backed up because they will not be able to grow cotton any more. The couple can produce eight to ten weight quilts one day early, with a processing cost of about 90 yuan, and less than the cost of net gauze, etc. the couple can get a wage of about 700 yuan. And ask some farmers who send cotton processing ideas, the answer is also take advantage of some cotton, processing, self use and reserve, to calculate it is more cost-effective than selling cotton traders.
