Affected by the rare weather in Xinjiang, the output of Xinjiang cotton has become a hot topic recently. It can be said that the output of Xinjiang cotton has great influence on the market.

At the same time, for enterprises, understanding Xinjiang cotton production will have an important impact on both operation strategy and financial investment.

According to the state

Market monitoring system data show that in 2015, cotton production in the whole country was 5 million 216 thousand tons, of which the output of Xinjiang autonomous region was 3 million 669 thousand tons, accounting for more than 70%.

It can be said that Xinjiang cotton trembles and trembles, and the whole domestic cotton spinning industry chain will tremble.

So what is the output of Xinjiang cotton in 2016?

This year, most of Xinjiang's cotton production is reduced to the cotton area of non suitable cotton area. The decline in production is already an indisputable fact. Especially in the early part of 5, most areas of Xinjiang suffered severe weather, and the main cotton producing areas were affected to varying degrees. The growth of cotton seedlings has been greatly affected, and many areas are facing the situation of replanting.

As of May 23rd, the cotton affected area in Manasi County of Xinjiang was 520 million 320 thousand mu, accounting for about 4% of the total cotton planting area.

This is only a specific case of one of the affected counties. Of course, the situation of other cotton planting areas is still being further investigated. Due to the gradual improvement of the weather in Xinjiang, local cotton farmers are implementing remedial measures in an orderly way.

Xinjiang cotton in 2016

The decline is more than last year. The key question is the specific decline and how much impact it will have on market supply and demand. This is the focus of attention.

According to the national cotton market monitoring system in March this year, cotton planting intention survey data showed that in 2016

The intended area of cotton planting is 28 million 527 thousand mu, which is about 2000000 Mu less than that of 30 million 998 thousand mu of actual cotton planting area in Xinjiang in 2015.

Xinjiang's local agricultural sector statistics in 2016 Xinjiang cotton planting area plan to reduce 1 million 500 thousand mu, including cotton layout structure is not scientific, low efficiency reasons, there are also over reclamation land, water resources are tight, destroy the local ecological environment.

On the one hand, the government grasps the overall situation and guides the reduction; on the other hand, cotton farmers take into account the benefits of cotton planting, and there are plans to appropriately reduce them.

Under the tacit cooperation between the government and cotton farmers, it is natural for Xinjiang cotton sown area to decline.
