Recently, I am from Dezhou. cotton The Association learned that since September of last year, cotton prices in Dezhou have gone up two times and two down. The purchase price of seed cotton has soared from 4.20 yuan / Jin in mid September to 7.20 yuan / Jin in early November, and the price of lint rose from 32000 yuan to ton in November, and 70% percent in the first half of November. The price of linseed rose to the highest price in history, almost one day a price. Cotton prices fell sharply last November 11th. By the end of November, the purchase price of seed cotton dropped to 5.30 yuan / kg, and lint to 26000 yuan / ton. After that, the cotton seed rose slowly to 6 yuan / Jin before the Spring Festival, and the lint was raised to 28000 yuan / ton. After the Spring Festival, it rose rapidly, rising to 6.30 yuan / kg in late 2, and lint rose to 31000 yuan / ton. Since the beginning of March, the price of lint and seed cotton has continued to decline. At present, the purchase price of seed cotton is below 4 yuan / Jin, and the lint price of grade four is about 18000 yuan / ton.

Cotton price "roller coaster" style ups and downs, Cotton grower Textile enterprises are "injured". Cotton farmers are reluctant to sell, wait and see, the progress of the sale is obviously slowed down; the inventory of spinning enterprises increases, and sales are difficult, so it is difficult to maintain normal operation. When the price of yarn rises, the order of textile enterprises is small, the price of yarn drops, the wait-and-see sentiment is strong, the purchasing is not active, the cotton yarn is seriously unsalable, and the stock is increasing greatly.

Cotton farmers: Cotton holding wait-and-see is not easy to sell

In the course of the interview, I learned that most cotton growers do not understand the recent fall in cotton prices. The price will rise later in the past years, but on the contrary this year, it will not rise or fall, but it will also decrease greatly. Now, the price is nearly half that of the highest price of 7.20 yuan / Jin, and it is not safe to store for a long time. And the price of new cotton after listing is not clear. It is really in a dilemma.

According to the survey, up to now, farmers in Dezhou are at home. Cotton storage The quantity is about 15%, and there are more cotton reserves in Xiajin county. Cotton growth is good in Dezhou this year. If the average yield per mu is 500 Jin, the price is 4.50 yuan / Jin, the output value of Mu is 2250 yuan, after deducting the direct cost, the mu income is 1794 yuan, which is more than 200 yuan / mu of grain. "Since last year, cotton prices have gone up and down. Although cotton prices have dropped sharply, they are still higher than the average level of 2.50 yuan -3.50 yuan / Jin in previous years. Because of the bumper harvest of wheat in Dezhou this year, coupled with the increased cost of cotton planting, cotton farmers have a higher expectation of new cotton prices, which should be above 5 yuan / Jin. It is estimated that the new cotton market will be more serious than the previous years, and the sales volume will not be too large in 9 and October. Ma Junkai, Deputy Secretary General of the city cotton association, said.
