Cotton Prices Are Rising And Falling, Affecting Domestic And Foreign Textile Enterprises.

Cotton is the seed fiber of the genus mallow plant. Its origin is subtropical. It was introduced into China at the end of nineteenth Century. It has been widely cultivated in all cotton producing areas of the country, and has replaced tree cotton and straw cotton. Now the highest cotton yield in the world is

The United States, India, Brazil, Mexico and other places.

According to the data released by the National Bureau of statistics, in 2015, the cotton planting area in China was 56 million 980 thousand mu, 10% less than that in 2014, and the total output was 5 million 605 thousand tons, which was 9.3% lower than the same period last year.

Despite the decrease in production, the stock of storage cotton has reached the highest level in history. In 2015, the reserve cotton stocks exceeded 11 million tons, accounting for almost.

Half of the stock.

Because of the different weather and climate in different regions, cotton planting time is different. Generally speaking, cotton planting time is around April each year.

In fact, since the spring of March, farmers began to buy cotton seeds for planting cotton, but because cotton is not directly planted as beans, so this time is the cultivation of cotton seedlings, so the true planting time of cotton should be in late March and early April.

Cotton planting conditions:

1, light: cotton is a photoperiod crop, suitable for growth under more adequate light conditions. The light compensation point and the light saturation point are all high. The light compensation point of cotton single leaf is 750~1000 lux, and the light saturation point is 7~8 lux. In general, the suitable range of light intensity for cotton leaves is 8000~70000 lux, and the photosynthetic intensity increases with the increase of light intensity in this range.

2, moisture: cotton growth needs to absorb water from the soil, and the physiological water requirements of different growth stages are different. It is advisable that the water content of the 0~20 cm soil layer should be 70 to 80% of the field capacity. The soil moisture at 0~40 cm in the seedling stage is suitable for 60 to 70% of field capacity. The soil moisture content in the first bud stage is 65 to 75% of the field capacity.

According to the relevant research, the cotton field in the whole growth period has about 2/3 of water consumption in ppiration and 1/3 consumption in the soil evaporation.

3, soil: Cotton Growth and development requires water and nutrients, mainly obtained from soil by root system. The temperature and air are partly taken from the soil, and the mechanical support of the soil is needed to grow.

The physical and chemical properties and biological attributes of cotton soil largely restrict the yield and quality of cotton. Soil moisture, nutrients, temperature, air, salinity and texture have great influence on cotton growth.

Hebei is one of the major cotton producing provinces in China, and its annual planting area is close to 6 million mu.

According to the situation of planting all over this year, the sowing area of the whole province is very hard to reach 4 million mu.

Market analyst Sun Liwu analyzed cotton prices continued to slump.

The limited demand is the main reason for large area abandoning.

In 2016, China's high quality cotton is still in a tight state of supply, and the price difference between high and low quality cotton may continue to widen.

Since January 2016, the import volume of cotton and cotton yarn has plummeted, and the import volume is much lower than that of the same period last year. The main reason is that the price of cotton has dropped, and foreign cotton and cotton yarns have lost their competitive edge.

If prices continue to rise, imported yarns will pour into China, and textile enterprises will simply be unable to resist.

This is domestic.

Industry will have a great impact.
