< p > there are some reasons for the substantial increase in cotton yield in Dafeng cotton.

According to the relevant person in charge of the development and Reform Commission of the city, the growth and development of cotton were hindered by the disastrous climate last year. Cotton fields were generally flooded and damaged, and serious fields appeared wilting, rotting roots and dead seedlings.

Last year, the cotton planting area in the whole city was about 560 thousand mu, and the area affected by the disease reached 100%.

This year, during the cotton growing season, it is drier and drier, and the weather is fine.

Especially during the rainy season of mid June of this year, there was no plum rain like the previous years. Cotton budding and flowering were full, and the rate of abscission was also greatly reduced.

Cotton farmers generally believe that this year is a rare "Miss plum year".

After entering the August, cotton growth momentum is good, before the peach, peach, early autumn festival bell foot, top peach close knot, in early September, new flowers can still form effective bell.

< p > this year, Dafeng City, < a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_s.asp" > cotton price < /a >, is also showing a steady trend of slight increase.

In March this year, the national development and Reform Commission and other departments issued a plan for the purchase and storage of cotton in 2012. The storage price was 20400 yuan per ton, which was 600 yuan higher than last year's 19800 yuan purchase and storage price.

In addition, the cotton planting area of this city is 474 thousand mu, which is 15.36% lower than that of 560 thousand mu last year.

On the premise that the price of the purchase and storage is fine tuned and the planting area is reduced, the purchase price of cotton in 2012 has increased by a certain margin over last year.

The output of cotton planted by Zong Rongjun in the village of wedong village in Cao Miao Town increased by 45 kilograms over last year. According to the market price, the yield increased by 800 yuan.

Data also showed that the cash yield per mu of cotton in Dafeng City was 1636.42 yuan this year, an increase of 934.88 yuan over last year's 701.54 yuan, an increase of 133.26%.

< p > the head of the NDRC thinks that the price of temporary storage and storage of cotton has increased in 2012, but it rose by only 3.03% compared with last year, which is lower than the minimum purchase price of wheat.

In addition, due to various factors such as market demand, purchase and sale spreads and so on, both cotton enterprises and cotton traders are cautious about entering the market.

The general manager of a flower mill in Chengguan City said that the plant actually has a production capacity of about 7500 tons, but because cotton is less than a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/" target= "_blank" > textile < /a > industry downturn, business risk is relatively large, and funds are tight, so the purchase of seed cotton is less than 1000 tons.

Almost all the hundreds of enterprises that have invested in the city have "enough to eat and drink enough".

< /p >

< p > although it is a harvest year, but the price of the actual operation of the market and the comparative benefits of the breeding industry and the cotton combine with the reduction of the area factor, the farmers do not realize that the cotton seed is better than the grain crops. Therefore, the enthusiasm of the farmers for cotton production has not been improved, and cotton production will continue to decrease in the coming year.
