2015 Xinjiang'S Cotton Direct Subsidy Way: Subsidizing Cotton Farmers According To Their Sales Volume.

The Uygur Autonomous Region People's government announced the 2015 year in 14.

The implementation of the target price reform pilot scheme and the cotton direct subsidy mode will be subsidized by cotton producers in most parts of Xinjiang.

According to this plan, from September this year, 90% of the total amount of the central subsidy will be supplied to cotton farmers by sale. The remaining 10% will be subsidized by the 4 Southern Xinjiang prefectures of Kashi, Hotan, Akesu and kiriz Kirgiz Autonomous Prefecture.

In the pilot work of 2014, 60% of the central subsidy funds were implemented according to the cotton planting area, and 40% was supplementation according to the actual sales volume.

However, the subsidy method of "area + sales volume" has disadvantages such as heavy workload and high administrative cost.

Zhang Chunlin, director of the autonomous development and Reform Commission, said that in order to facilitate farmers, this year Xinjiang will also implement an electronic "planting certificate" and no longer use the original paper version.

At present, the planting of most cotton farmers in Xinjiang has been put into the system, and farmers can sell them directly.

In September 2014, the state implemented cotton target price pilot work in Xinjiang for the first time, while canceling temporary storage and storage of cotton.

Since then, China's cotton prices began to be formed by market supply and demand, and the government no longer intervenes in market prices.

The so-called target price refers to the expected price set by the relevant departments of the state according to the cost of planting agricultural products on the premise that farmers are guaranteed certain benefits.

If the market price of agricultural products is lower than the target price at harvest time, it will be subsidized to farmers according to the difference; if the market price is higher than the target price, no subsidy will be given.

In recent years, China's cotton market has fluctuated greatly, especially in Xinjiang, the phenomenon of "selling cotton is difficult".

In order to protect the interests of cotton farmers, since 2011, the state has implemented the temporary cotton purchase and storage policy for 3 consecutive years, which has played an important role in stabilizing domestic cotton production and protecting the interests of farmers. At the same time, it also caused domestic cotton prices to be much higher than that of the international market.

The cost of industrial raw materials is high, and the international competitiveness is weakening rapidly, which once again affects cotton production and acquisition.

In order to solve "

In 2014, the central government decided to implement the cotton target price reform pilot project in Xinjiang to stabilize the cotton farmers' income, while reducing the cost of raw materials for textile enterprises and promoting the coordinated development of the upstream and downstream industries.

At present, domestic cotton prices have dropped to a more reasonable level, basically in line with international market prices.

Xinjiang is the largest cotton producing area in China, and more than half of the local farmers benefit from this "white industry".

Last year, the local public inspection cotton volume exceeded 4 million 250 thousand tons, accounting for more than 60% of the total output of the country.
