Hebei Cangzhou: Cotton Sown Area Decreased

Qingming just passed, Hebei Cangzhou cotton is the start of cotton spring sowing preparations. From the understanding of the situation, we have the following characteristics:

1, spring sowing is generally postponed or postponed for 5-7 days this year. The reason for the delay is that the weather is slowing down this year. Two the epidemic affects cotton farmers' doubts about whether to grow cotton this year.

2, the area dropped considerably this year. According to the introduction of cotton farmers between Hejian and Dongguang, most of the cotton growing in 2019 did not get tangible benefits. In particular, cotton prices have dropped to the bottom of the valley. As of 6 days, the 3 grade price of real estate cotton is only 11000 yuan / ton (pick up, gross weight, and ticket), and seed cotton purchase and sale have already been concluded ahead of schedule. Cotton farmers are faced with "selling cotton difficultly" and facing the "cotton cheap injury to farmers". So many cotton farmers no longer grow cotton this year.

It is understood that this year's cotton area in Cangzhou is expected to be 120 thousand mu first line, compared to 180 thousand acres in 2019 dropped about 60 thousand acres.

Cottonseed prices have stabilized in recent years. As of 7 days, the main price of cottonseed in Dongguang County was 1.24-1.25 yuan / Jin, up 0.01 yuan / Jin yesterday. There are two main reasons for the rise of cottonseed: first, there is a serious epidemic in the near future. Many countries and regions have banned grain and oil exports, and stimulate the market to stop immediately. Two, there are very few sources of cottonseed. Especially after the Spring Festival, almost all cotton ginning plants have not been started. Therefore, cottonseed has been in short supply.

Recently, the yarn Market in Cangzhou has plummeted. On the 7 day, the price of OEC12S in some mills was about 14900 yuan / ton, down nearly 300 yuan / ton compared with the previous week. At present, there are fewer orders in the cotton mill, and most of the small and medium-sized mills are facing a shutdown crisis. Individual manufacturers have been on holiday before the Ching Ming Festival and when to start production again, the situation needs to be clearer.
