Cotton Mills Are Facing Overcapacity And The Predicament Of The Cotton Industry In The Mainland.
Fan Lou village, Shuangmiao Township, Xiajin County, was once famous for its large cotton planting village.
Du Yuxia, Secretary of the village committee and cotton farmer, told the Herald reporter that all more than 4300 acres of cultivated land in the village had been planted with cotton all the same.
But in recent years, because of the sluggish cotton prices and the pfer of rural labor force to cities, the cotton which is time-consuming and time-consuming is no longer favored by everyone.
"In 2013, there were 700 acres of corn fields on the farmland in the village. By 2014, the area of corn increased to more than 1700 mu, and the area of the cotton field dropped to about 2600 mu. By this year, the cotton field area of the whole village has dropped to more than 1000 mu."
Du Yuxia said.
As for why farmers abandon cotton to grain, Du Yuxia gave an account to the guide reporter: "because of the excessive rain in the previous period, the output of cotton has declined this year, and the output of cotton seed cotton per mu is about 400 Jin. At present, the price of the purchase is 3.1 yuan per catty, the gross income per mu is 1200 yuan, and the net income per mu is only 300 yuan, after deducting the cost."
Du Yuxia is a famous cotton farmer in the area. He planted more than 30 mu of cotton this year. "One year, he can earn more than 10 thousand yuan."
Wang Anjun, Secretary General of Xiajin Cotton Association, told the reporter that the total area of arable land in Xiajin county was 870 thousand mu, and the cotton planting area had been maintained at more than 600 thousand acres throughout the year.
But in recent years, the county cotton
planting area
The decline has dropped to about 320 thousand acres by 2014. "This year we estimate that the area of cotton fields in the whole county is about 150 thousand mu."
According to Ma Junkai, vice president of Dezhou Cotton Association, last year, the cotton planting area in the city was 680 thousand mu. The planting area decreased by 40% this year, leaving only about 400 thousand mu, which is quite different from that of nearly 3 million mu in 2008.
"The quantity is small, the price is high, the loss, the present cotton cannot accept."
25, Henry, general manager of Xiajin cotton Co., Ltd., Yu Fengjun, admitted to the Economic Herald reporter.
At this time in past years, with the picking of new cotton, cotton processing plants in Xiajin and even Dezhou will begin to buy cotton.
But this year, the cotton processing plants are still waiting quietly.
The reporter learned that, affected by the sharp decline of planting area and the reduction of yield per unit area, as one of the important cotton areas in Shandong, the cotton output of Dezhou has dropped sharply this year, and further led to the depression of downstream industries.
The current situation of cotton industry in Dezhou is a microcosm of the cotton area in the mainland of China.
Yu Fengjun told the Herald reporter that at present these 14 large ones.

Only one or two of the processing plants began to buy cotton, and the rest have not yet started.
Moreover, even if it starts, it will not make money.
"Affected by the weather, cotton production is low this year. Farmers are reluctant to sell and have high psychological expectations.
The purchase price of a cotton processing plant started at about 3.2 yuan per kilograms is about 13 thousand and 400 yuan / ton, and the price of lint is only 13 thousand yuan / ton in the market. Therefore, buying cotton at the current price is a loss making business.
He said.
Xiajin County vigorous lint Management Co., Ltd. is another large cotton processing plant in the region.
Zhang Ruijun, general manager of the company, told the reporters that they had stopped buying.
"The volume is too small, the cost amortization is too large, so after a period of time has been suspended, wait for the" eleven "and then look at the situation.

The decline of planting area will further affect the downstream textile industry.
The reporter learned that the local textile mills in Xiajin have increased the purchase amount of Xinjiang cotton and imported cotton in recent years to alleviate the impact of local cotton production decline.
It is worth noting that even if cotton is converted to grain, the enthusiasm of farmers to cultivate land is also decreasing.
In particular, after the corn price was lowered this year, some farmers who had abandoned cotton to grain were crying incessantly.
"In the final analysis, the distribution pattern of small farms in China's agriculture is no longer suited to the needs of economic development.
Ten acres of land will not earn much in a year.
In the future, proper scale operation is the trend of the times.
An industry analyst told reporters on the guide.
