In June 1st, Wensu County in Akesu, Xinjiang was attacked by hail for nearly 40 minutes. Preliminary statistics showed that direct economic losses amounted to 120 million yuan, and nearly 104 thousand mu of crops in Wensu county were seriously damaged, of which 2 million mu of cotton were dead.

According to statistics from the Xinjiang Department of agriculture, as of May 25th, the total area of cotton sown in the whole area was 13 million 832 thousand and 800 mu, up 849 thousand and 300 mu compared with the same period last year.

But since the cotton sowing this year, rain and snow have been seen in parts of northern Xinjiang, and the temperature in the southern Xinjiang has been relatively low, which is extremely unfavorable for cotton growth.

Xinjiang cotton was hit by natural disasters and suffered heavy losses. Cotton farmers' expectations for new cotton production were also pessimistic.

Wang Danna, an analyst at cottonnet.toocle.com, predicts that although Xinjiang's cotton planting area has been affected by the cotton market better, the bad weather has basically offset this positive effect. The output of Xinjiang cotton is lower than that of the same period last year.
