Whether The Sale Of Machine Picked Cotton Can Be Reversed Depends On The Situation In 2016.

According to the national cotton market monitoring system survey data, as of February 19th, the national total processing lint 4 million 636 thousand tons, the cumulative sales of lint 2 million 490 thousand tons, sales accounted for 53.4%.

Among them, Xinjiang processed 3 million 570 thousand tons of lint and sold 1 million 621 thousand tons of lint, accounting for 45.4%.

From the published data, domestic cotton overall sales progress is not optimistic, especially in recent years, the whole cotton market is quite deserted, cotton sales have reached a deadlock, but machine picked cotton has ushered in a good sales situation.

According to the news from the market, the sales of machine picked cotton in Xinjiang in 2015 were better than those in the market.

Among them, the sales of machine picked cotton in Northern Xinjiang is the best.

A cotton enterprise said that the main reason for the 2015 best selling of machine picked cotton in North Xinjiang was low price and good quality.

At present, the 3128 class of machine picked cotton is priced at 12000 yuan / ton (gross weight), while the same grade hand picked cotton price is 12500-12800 yuan / ton, per ton.

Price difference of 500-800 yuan / ton, such a high price difference so that downstream textile enterprises are scramble for it.

In addition, (the second paragraph has already said that the quality of good prices is low, here is not to be described), because the machine production of cotton to achieve a large-scale, mechanized operation, not only improve the efficiency of work, but also reduce production costs.

It is understood that in 2015, the purchase price of cotton seed picked by machine picked cotton and hand picked cotton is 1.2 yuan / kg, which is equivalent to 1500 yuan per ton of lint production cost. Even if hand picked cotton has been sold at a loss, the machine picked cotton will be profitable.

In the year of 2015, machine harvested cotton has finally come to a great reversal. This will certainly give a strong dose to Xinjiang's cotton picking and processing industry in 2016. But the fact remains that the domestic machine picked cotton has a long way to go.

It is understood that in 2015, due to the cotton quality and cotton farmers' importance, the quality of machine picked cotton has been greatly improved compared with the previous years. While the cotton picking length and horse value of Xinjiang hand picked cotton have been greatly reduced, the quality gap between them has been narrowed, which provides a solid foundation for machine picking cotton to seize the opportunity.
