AQSIQ Released The White Paper On The Quality Of Imported Cotton In 2016

According to the world clothing shoes and hat net, recently, AQSIQ held a press conference, Sun Wenkang, director general of the inspection and supervision department of the General Administration of quality supervision, inspection and quarantine, released the 2016 national import.

White paper on quality status (hereinafter referred to as the white paper).

Affected by the world economic situation and changes in domestic supply and demand, prices and other factors, cotton imports continued to decline in recent years. In 2016, the number of imported cotton in China decreased significantly compared with the same period in 2015. The entry and exit inspection and quarantine institutions of the whole country examined 3926 batches, 46 thousand and 800 tons and 1 billion 591 million US dollars of imported cotton respectively, representing a decrease of 37.9%, 35.8% and 40.5% respectively compared with 2015.

In 2016, China imported cotton from 30 countries and regions. Australia, the United States, Uzbekistan, India and Brazil ranked the top five in China's cotton imports. The total import weight accounted for 88.5% of the total imports, and the total value accounted for 88.9% of the total value of imports.

In 2016, China imported cotton from 24 countries and regions, including Argentina, Egypt, Benin, Togo, France, China and Hongkong, totaling 525 batches and 109 thousand and 300 tons, with a total value of 177 million 138 thousand and 300 dollars, accounting for 13.37% of the total imports, 11.54% of total weight and 11.13% of the total value.

The average reduction rate of cotton in these importing countries and regions was 10.51%, the rate of decline was 10.13%, the percentage of clones was 6.45%, the rate of strong inconsistency was 4.84%, and the short weight rate was 1.4%.

The overall quality of imported cotton imports increased in 2016 compared with the same period in 2015. Except for the strong unqualified rate and the corresponding increase in the same period in 2015, the grade, length, and the failure rate of Mclon decreased compared with the same period in 2015.

However, the quality of cotton in some major importing countries is lower than that in 2015.

According to statistics, the overall average rate of non conformity was 11.54%, which was 3.18 percentage points lower than that in the same period in 2015 (14.72%), and the rate of demotion ranged from 0.5 to 4. The overall average rate of non conformity was 5.93%, which was 0.72 percentage points lower than that in 2015 (6.65%), and the average rate of non conformity of the mun value was 3.11%, which was reduced by 0.08 percentage points compared with the same period in 2015 (3.19%).

In terms of import weight, the problem of short weight is still outstanding.

It was found that 84.23% of the batches were short weight and the average short weight rate was 0.74%, which was 0.06 percentage points lower than that in the same period in 2015 (0.80%).

In terms of quality, the quality problems of imported cotton in 2016 were mainly due to the following reasons: first, the quality of individual batches of cotton decreased due to factors such as cotton growth conditions, climates, picking methods and rolling technology.

In addition, the cotton quality of different producing areas and batches of cotton was poor.

Two, the overall economic situation is sluggish, and spinning enterprises are particularly hard.

domestic

Factory and downstream consumer demand is insufficient and lead enterprises to consider the price first when buying cotton. Because of low price, the quality of the incoming goods can not be guaranteed; cotton grade mixed and so on are many, and poor consistency is unfavorable to the maintenance of the economic interests of cotton enterprises.

Three, the quality difference between the sample and the actual arrival cotton is too large. The production and management of the sample are not standardized. The quality of the sample is often higher than that of the big ones, which directly leads to a bigger degradation of the quality of the goods.

Four is affected by the price of cotton at home and abroad, the quality of the actual arrival of cotton will often be different from the quality of the contract, and does not exclude suppliers from reducing the interest losses arising from the performance of contracts.

Five, the quality of Brazil cotton and American cotton with larger import volume is lower than that of the same period in 2015.

The six is the cotton that is delivered in the form of a small quantity of tail goods in the contract. The quality of the cotton actually arrived will often be different from the quality of the contract.

In terms of weight, the problem of short weight is still outstanding.

The main reasons are: first, because of the dry and hot climate in India and other countries, which is not conducive to seed cotton processing, it is customary to spray treatment in the process of cotton ginning, resulting in a large amount of water content in India cotton. The weight difference is caused by the change of moisture regain after long-distance pportation, but it does not exclude the weight difference caused by water spraying from cotton bags.

The two reason is trade practice.

Behavior is difficult to change in the short term.

However, since the implementation of the credit evaluation system for overseas suppliers, the phenomenon of short weight rate exceeding 3% has been greatly reduced.

Three, because of the interest driven, there are individual overseas suppliers, which are not honest, and intentionally short, to a certain extent, cause short weight.

In other respects, the quality of packaging is poor, and the quality of cotton packaging varies widely in different countries.

On the one hand, it is related to the level of cotton processing technology in various countries, and on the other hand, it is also related to the degree of attention of different countries.

In view of the quality of imported cotton, the white paper recommends that all cotton enterprises first strengthen the standardization of trade contracts, and the two is to do well in the management of imported cotton packaging. Three, overseas suppliers should strengthen cotton packaging and quality control.
