Cotton Farmers Expect Cotton Subsidy Policy To Shine.

< p > > a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_p.asp" > Jiangsu < /a > Sheyang county was once the key county of cotton production in the whole country, and also the largest county of cotton production in Jiangsu province.

From 2000 to 2008, the total annual output of cotton in the county has exceeded 50 thousand tons for 9 consecutive years, and the proportion in the whole country and Jiangsu is basically stable at 1% and 18% respectively.

In recent 5 years, the planting area of cotton has been less and less affected by many factors, such as the adjustment of planting structure, the rising cost of cotton planting, the decrease of comparative benefit, and the change of agricultural labor force.

< p > 2013 has dropped to 200 thousand mu, and the total output is only 20 thousand and 400 tons.

This year, the County Cotton Association's recent survey shows that the reduction will still exceed 10%.

However, due to the unified adjustment of farming patterns in some villages, restrictions on production conditions and farmers' planting habits, nearly 1/4 of the farmers in the county are sticking to cotton cultivation.

< p > in order to protect the interests of cotton growers, the state began to carry out temporary cotton storage and purchase while continuing to subsidize cotton varieties in 2011.

Despite the implementation of this policy, the total volume of national storage and storage has increased rapidly, and the pressure on inventory has been increasing. The price difference between domestic and foreign cotton has been continuously enlarged. < a target= "_blank" href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/" > textile > /a > the cost of raw materials of enterprises has risen, and the market competitiveness has declined.

But it has played a good supporting role in stabilizing cotton prices, stabilizing the market and ensuring cotton farmers' cotton planting benefits.

< /p >

< p > to cope with the existing problems and the demands of all sides, the state will carry out reforms in this year's temporary storage and purchase of cotton for three years.

Central Document No. 1 has made it clear that "continue to adhere to the principle of market pricing, explore and promote the reform of the price formation mechanism of agricultural products and decoupling government subsidies, gradually establish the target price system of agricultural products, subsidize low-income consumers when the market price is too high, and subsidize producers according to the price difference when the market price is lower than the target price, so as to effectively protect the farmers' income".

It is very clear that such a policy will not only facilitate the promotion of cotton prices from policy orientation to market regulation, but also speed up the pformation of the current situation of textile enterprises and make cotton farmers' income better guaranteed from the system.

The national development and Reform Commission has confirmed that this year only Xinjiang will be the only pilot area for cotton direct subsidy policy, which means that the cotton subsidy policy will not be implemented in the mainland temporarily.

After the abolition of temporary cotton storage and storage, domestic cotton prices will inevitably move towards the market and fall.

< p > Chen Yonghui, a cotton grower in gatong village, Haitong Town, has published an account. Since 2011, the household cotton planting area has basically stabilized at about 10 mu. From 2013 to 2013, the average yield per unit area of seed cotton is 195 kg, 240 kg and 290 kg respectively; the average selling price is 7.3 yuan, 7.96 yuan and 8.04 yuan respectively; the direct income of cotton planting (including national cotton subsidy) is 1449 yuan, 1916 yuan and 2347 yuan respectively; after excluding the cost of investment, the income from self employed workers is 2347 yuan, 2347 yuan and Yuan Yuan respectively.

Although there is still a certain gap between the cotton price and earnings forecast of the year, the overall price of cotton has increased steadily and the psychological balance has been balanced.

< /p >

< p > once the cotton price tends to be priced in the market, it will gradually integrate with the international cotton price.

Even if the price of cottonseed can be stabilized at the previous year, the average selling price of seed cotton will drop to around 7 yuan, 1.04 yuan less than that in 2013, and the net income per mu will be reduced by 301.6 yuan.

But this year's cotton production can reach the level of last year. It is hard to predict at the moment, and the cost of inputs will continue to improve. If there is no support from the state policy, the cotton planting income will be greatly reduced.

At present, the household planning has increased the cotton planting area to 14 Mu this year, and has bought all cotton seeds before the Spring Festival.

Therefore, we urgently hope that the cotton subsidy policy will be able to shine on all cotton farmers in order to stabilize or increase the income of cotton planting.

< /p >

< p > in Sheyang, there are still a few cotton farmers such as Chen Yonghui. We all hope to make up for the a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_q.asp" > policy < /a > specific implementation ideas or plans, which can be announced before the end of the March cotton nutrition bowl seedling bowl, so that the cotton farmers will have a bottom in mind and finalize the cotton planting area as soon as possible, so that the cotton will grow better this year.
