Cotton Measures Are Effective And The Impact Of Broadcast Is Small.

Recently, the cotton association of China has carried out an investigation into the situation of cotton plowing and planting. The survey shows that except for Hubei province and serious epidemic areas, most parts of the country have been gradually resumed and resumed production, agricultural supplies are adequate, prices remain stable, transportation is basically smooth, and cotton farmers purchase seeds, fertilizers and other agricultural materials through various channels. If the epidemic is effectively controlled in late March, cotton ploughing will start smoothly.

There are many ways of spring plowing and broadcasting in Xinjiang cotton area: Corps workers can entrust companies and cooperatives to purchase the necessary agricultural materials such as seeds, fertilizers, pesticides, plastic film, drip irrigation belts and other spring ploughing. Agricultural enterprises and distributors have also launched the "point to point" production and distribution mode to ensure the supply of agricultural materials, and Agricultural Machinery Cooperatives and large agricultural machinery households have maintained agricultural machinery to ensure the safe use of spring ploughing agricultural machinery.

At present, the main problems of spring sowing in Xinjiang are: first, some farmers can not return to Xinjiang in time because of the epidemic situation. After returning to Xinjiang, they have to be quarantined for 14 days. Two, agricultural loans have not yet been put into operation. Although banks are gradually resuming business, cotton farmers are still worried about insufficient funds for spring sowing, hoping that subsidies can be paid early.

The cotton fields in the mainland (except for Hubei province) began spring ploughing in late March. Only 5% of the farmers purchased agricultural materials, while some cotton farmers built land under the fields, but the time was strictly controlled. The green channel of agricultural materials in the inland cotton area is unblocked. It can arrange purchase or door-to-door at any time, and will not affect the spring ploughing production of farmers.

Hubei province has been greatly affected by the epidemic. According to the survey, up to now, Hubei cotton region is still in a closed management state, and a small amount of agricultural materials can also be purchased, but fewer farmers are buying. Cotton farmers can work in the fields where the epidemic is relatively light. In areas where the epidemic is serious, farmers can not go out, they can not plough the fields, and have a certain effect on the spring plowing and broadcasting. Cotton farmers are worried that when the concentration of agricultural materials is purchased, the supply of agricultural products will not be enough, which will lead to a sustained rise in prices. The cotton planting time in Hubei is generally around 20-25 days in April, but the open space such as the end of March did not resume production, which was harmful to cotton seedling raising or seeding.
