Two Major Reasons For The Nationwide Cotton Production Reduction In 2015.

In 2015, cotton production in the whole country was greatly reduced. Recently, the National Bureau of Statistics announced that the total output of cotton in 2015 was 5 million 605 thousand tons, a decrease of 574 thousand tons compared with 2014, a decrease of 9.3%. In recent years, China cotton Output is plummeting, and Chinese cotton growers are also seeing sharp reductions in the naked eye. What was the reason? No one thought of it. Some people summed up two "killers" for cotton farmers in 2015. It is believed that it is their existence that cotton growers have no place to stand.

1, hot work, good men do not go home, take the Quartet. Take Cangzhou, Hebei as an example, a young laborer who works in a private enterprise has a general salary of 3500-4000 yuan / month, and a slightly skilled job will get up to 5000 yuan / month, with less than 50 thousand yuan a year. Cotton seed? Cangzhou area average one person 1.2 Mu responsibility farmland, this season cotton down, net profit is negative. Planting cotton or going out for work? Anyone can count on this account.

The writer exchanges with a big brother of the farmer. He said that there are three or fewer in the countryside nowadays: more than 3 are many old people, many children and many singles. One is less vigorous and vigorous. Why, almost all the young workers have gone out to work. Such a concept has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The big brother said that the more than 2000 acres of their village were all corn in the autumn. Why? In the village, there are only old people left in the village. All the young people are busy walking around and making big money.

Visit all the farmers in Hebei, Henan and Shandong. Income from work has become the main source of income for farmers, and farming has been marginalized.

2, the main body is small, and the cotton mill ten goes to eight and sells cotton difficultly. Cangzhou, Hebei, for example, has 400 types of ginning plants 82, this year officially started less than 20 manufacturers. The 200 type of cotton ginning factory more than 200, started less than 10 this year, and bought 30 of the buyers.

Cangzhou city has 13 thousand and 400 square kilometers and has 17 counties (cities) under the jurisdiction of the county, with an average of less than 2 ginning plants in one county (city). In addition, the ginning plants are mainly distributed in several western counties (cities), and Huanghua, Mengcun, Yanshan and Qingxian County in the East have basically sung "empty city plans". Even some Eastern cotton growers say they did not find the acquirers this year and did not know who to sell them.

Someone made a statistic that the cotton mill in this year started less than 20%, and cotton growers in many areas suffered from "selling cotton difficultly". Cotton mill is a very important link in the cotton industry chain, and even cotton growers sell the cotton after preliminary processing. Spin Enterprises, and now the cotton ginning plant is rickety, so that the upstream cotton farmers have a sense of weightlessness.

When I was chatting with a friend of a ginning factory in Shandong, he said that the key to running a ginning factory is to hold two points: first, close to resources, and second away from textile enterprises. Now, the 400 type ginning factory is losing these two key points. Many cotton farmers give up cotton because they are far away from buying FOTILE, and the cotton mill also has a vicious circle because of the thinner and thinner profit margins.

Therefore, the author thinks that if cotton growers want to grow cotton, they must first increase their income; if they want to increase their income, they must open up the scale planting channel. Cotton grower Cotton yield is not lost to working. In addition, it is also necessary to open up a sales channel for cotton farmers, so that cotton farmers will no longer sell cotton. The most important thing is that there must be a main body of purchase and a large number of buyers. The buyer's market of cotton will gradually become a "seller's market".
