Analysis Of Cotton Yield In Liangshan County In 2012

< p > < a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp > > cotton < /a > is a major cash crop in Liangshan County of Shandong province.

Over the years, Liangshan County Price Bureau has been insisting on the investigation and analysis of cotton planting income. According to the investigation of the income of 15 farmers in three towns and villages in Ma Ying, Han Gang and Yang Ying, this year's cotton farmers' income is still not optimistic. The yield of cotton per mu is lower than that of grain crops. This is also the main reason for the continuous reduction of cotton planting area in recent years.

< p > planting cost and income.

According to the survey data, the average cost per mu is between 350-467 yuan, the labor cost is 440-600 yuan, and the net income per mu is 700-970 yuan. Due to the difference in management methods and employment, the gap is quite wide. But in general, the net profit per mu is not more than 1000 yuan, which is higher than that of grain and crop.

The following are selected three representative farmers.

< /p >

< p > several factors restricting the cotton farmers' income.

First, production data in recent years are less than a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_s.asp" > price < /a > continuous rise, pesticide and chemical fertilizer input has increased; two, labor costs have increased; in recent years, labor costs have increased considerably; the average daily wage of migrant workers is more than 100 yuan, while cotton needs more working hours, and cotton is obviously not suitable for occupying vigorous labor. Three, because of the low degree of mechanization of cotton production, more manpower and poor management, the difference in average cost per mu is nearly 200 yuan.

In view of the above problems, Liangshan County Price Bureau has given opinions and suggestions. Simply speaking, improving the efficiency of cotton production requires the joint efforts of the government and farmers.

Two, the supervision and inspection of the prices of agricultural products, such as fertilizers, will curb the excessive upward trend of the prices of agricultural means of production. We should increase the publicity and promotion efforts of agricultural means of production, guide farmers to improve their planting varieties, increase their planting benefits through planting fine varieties, and promote the scientific fertilization of farmers, increase the efficiency of chemical fertilizer utilization, reduce the excessive use of chemical fertilizers, and guide farmers to apply more farmyard manure to alleviate the impact of fertilizer prices on production costs; four, the state should further adopt macro-control measures to increase the number of cotton stored in the state, increase the number of stored cotton in the year, store up the harvest in the harvest year, and sell in less than three years. < p > for the government, the first is to implement the comprehensive control measures of the state to support chemical fertilizer production, ensure market supply and price stability.

< /p >

< p > for the vast number of farmers, on the one hand, we should do a good job in updating the plant varieties and increase production and income by planting good varieties; on the other hand, we should rationally use chemical fertilizers and apply more farmyard manure to reduce production costs and increase production efficiency.

< /p >

< p > Liangshan County price bureau thinks that if we want to increase cotton output and increase the income of cotton farmers, we must explore the modern planting mode and raise the scientific level of seed cotton.

This is not only from the interests of cotton growers, but also to consolidate the status of China's "a href=" //www.sjfzxm.com "cotton > /a" export power, and prevent the traditional cotton economic crops from drowning in the tide of modern market economy.
