Cotton Purchase In Jinghai Ended &Nbsp, Price Increase And Cotton Farmers' Income Increased

　　 As of December 14th, 2010 Jinghai area The acquisition of cotton has ended. According to Jinghai County agricultural sector statistics, the county cotton Planting area of 175 thousand mu, processing enterprises to investigate the actual area of about 230 thousand acres, Mu 220 kg, better than expected, the current seed cotton sale has been basically completed. The county mainly assumes a 400 type of cotton purchasing and processing tasks. enterprise The acquisition and processing capacity of lint reached only 20% of the annual design capacity.

Generally speaking, the acquisition of Jinghai has five characteristics:

First, cotton farmers pick up with each other and earn higher profits. According to the survey, the average seed cotton price of cotton growers is 5.3 yuan / Jin, and the output per mu is 220 kilograms. Gross income can reach 2332 yuan, minus the cost of 1000 yuan per mu. The net income per mu can be up to 1332 yuan by conservative calculation, and the benefit of planting cotton has reached a record high this year.

Two, the purchase price is rising all the way. Looking back from September 13th, the scale was priced at 4.2 yuan / Jin, and by November 10th it reached 7 yuan / Jin, or 66%, which was rare in history. This can be divided into three stages, one stage from 5 to September, mild rise; two stage 10 to early November, frenzy soaring; three stage since mid November, gradually revised rationality. Like the Qing Dynasty's "chanting cotton poem": "in May cotton hair, dry cotton in August, (October) flowers warm all over the world, (November) flowers fall cold all over the world."

Three. Seed cotton regain moisture. Because the cotton circulation enterprises are affected by the good situation, the enthusiasm of the acquisition is high, and it is considered profitable to buy cotton seeds. Most enterprises ignore the moisture regain rate and rush to harvest at the same time, reaching 20% or even 30% at a high time.

Four, the quality of cotton is low. The quality of cotton can not be guaranteed because of the reason of "super water cotton". As of December 14th, the 400 type enterprises in 2010 public inspection showed that Tianjin's 4 grade cotton accounted for the mainstream, and the proportion of 3 grade cotton was very small. According to the fiber inspection agency report, the 4 lint percentage of a 400 type processing enterprise in Jinghai county is 64.10%, the 5 grade lint percentage is 30.7%, and 3 grade lint percentage is only 4.10%.

　　 Five. Seed cotton percentage is lower than last year. Last year, an average of 37.39%, 34.48% this year, down by nearly 3 percentage points. There are three reasons for this. First, the growth period of cotton is short this year. It sows 10 to 15 days later in spring, and the natural quality decreases. Two, the moisture regain of seed cotton is large, which is 2 percentage points higher than that of last year. The three is that the seed cotton has high impurity content, and the impurities such as cotton bolls, cotton shells and cotton leaves are more than those in previous years. After testing, the impurity content of seed cotton reaches up to 7%, and the cost of enterprises increases.
