Xinjiang: Distribution And Development Of High Yield Superior Cotton Area And Promotion Of Cotton Industry Competitiveness

Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region will continue to improve the coverage rate of fine cotton varieties and mechanized production level, enhance the competitiveness of the cotton industry, and promote the high-quality development of the industry.

This year, Jinghe County 931900 acres of high-quality cotton harvest. At present, in the processing workshop of cotton ginning plant of Xinjiang Huinong Cotton Industry Co., Ltd., daheyanzi Town, Jinghe County, the equipment of ginning, clearing and drying is booming, and the new cotton is being processed and purchased. Chen Liang, Secretary of the Party branch of gashun Prague village, daheyanzi Town, Jinghe County, made an account for the reporter. Chen Liang: "this variety is unified, and the management is in place. Our 8000 mu of cotton is sold to a factory. The common people's cotton can earn 20 yuan more per mu of land. Planting 100 mu of land is 2000 yuan."

Thanks to the in-depth promotion of the structural reform on the supply side of cotton, this year Jinghe county has implemented the "one main and two auxiliary" cotton planting mode. 90% of the cotton in the county has achieved mechanized harvesting. The indexes of fiber length, strength, horse value, evenness, color and maturity of cotton purchased by cotton enterprises have been unified, which not only saves the process of classification and classification of enterprises, but also processes the cotton The quality of lint also improved significantly.

Today, most areas in Xinjiang have adopted the "one main and two auxiliary" planting mode, and the mechanized harvesting area of cotton is growing at an annual rate of more than one million mu. According to statistics, from 2016 to 2019, the mechanized cotton harvesting area in Xinjiang increased from 4.8623 million mu to 14.15 million mu, and the level of cotton mechanical harvest increased from 20.71% to 53.91%. At the same time, our district actively in the innovation of cotton varieties, improve the quality and yield of cotton, the use of new technology. Relying on the national platform institutions such as the western agricultural research center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the national cotton industry alliance, Changji Hui Autonomous Prefecture has carried out the experiment and demonstration of new varieties of high-quality cotton. By widening the row spacing, reducing the density, increasing the height, exploring new planting patterns, accelerating the research and development of early maturing and high-yield cotton products, Changji Hui Autonomous Prefecture has cultivated Zhongmian 641 and Tepu cotton 979, which are more suitable for mechanized harvesting New varieties of high quality cotton are listed. At present, the cotton processing enterprises of "Pu Te" have been promoted in 979 mu. Xinjiang Huifeng Cotton Industry Co., Ltd. General Manager LV Dianhu: "979 varieties in my cotton varieties, clothing percentage, comprehensive indicators, length is currently the highest, the price is higher than ordinary cotton at least 200 to 300 yuan a ton, so our processing plant income also increased, cotton farmers' income also increased."

Li Jing, chief agronomist of the agriculture and rural Department of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, said that Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region will make every effort to build a national high-quality commodity cotton production base in combination with the construction of high-standard cotton fields and million mu of cotton seed production base. Li Jing: "speed up the promotion of" one main and two auxiliary "seed use mode in the same ecological region to solve the problem of numerous and miscellaneous cotton varieties at the source; promote the whole process of mechanization of cotton production in the whole region, especially in southern Xinjiang, and strive to achieve the mechanized recovery rate of more than 70% in the new year; study and explore the subsidy mechanism for cotton production benefits, and promote the green and high-quality development of cotton production."
