Where will the cotton industry in Shandong Province go?

Editor's note: Shandong's cotton industry breaks out and Cheng Fang is connected with mechanized planting.

“It is estimated that Texas will have less than 1.2 million mu this year, which is a reduction of more than 400,000 mu from the previous year. About 25% of the cotton will be changed to wheat.” Ma Junkai, deputy secretary-general of the Dezhou Cotton Association, told reporters, “As traditional Cotton planting and cotton production areas, Texas cotton acreage maintained at 200-300 million mu in the past decade, in recent years the decline is more obvious, in 2009 2.3 million mu, in 2010 is 1.55 million mu, in the case of high cotton prices Next, the cotton planting area increased in 2011, but it was only 1.6 million mu.”

“Maybe in addition to the declining cotton field in Texas, it is time to count Cao County in Heze. It was once the production of more than 1 million cotton. The number is very poor now. The cotton fields in Heze City are also very severe.” Shandong Cotton The vice secretary-general of the association, Mr. Bian Shenggui, expressed this helpless change with the reporter. “Since last year, it has estimated 12 million mu, and the actual final area is about 11.6 million mu. This year is certainly less.” China Cotton Association released 2012 Annual survey data of cotton planting areas showed that the estimated planting area in the Yellow River Basin was 24.36 million mu, a decrease of 14%, of which Shandong had a decline of 15%.

In the face of reality, where will the cotton industry in Shandong Province go in the future?

"We must give agricultural subsidies to cotton farmers like grain subsidies, and at the same time encourage cotton farmers to establish cotton cooperatives to reduce planting costs." Ma Junkai suggested that cotton is the crop next to food, and the country should attach importance to cotton production as much as food. At present, cotton growers only have fine subsidies of 15 yuan per mu. Considering the increase in agricultural capital, farmers should also enjoy agricultural subsidies of 98 yuan per mu.

Yu Yuping mentioned that the Xiajin County Bureau of Agriculture plans to intercropping potatoes through cotton fields to promote the intercropping of cotton and potatoes to make full use of space and increase efficiency. "At present, this intercropping model is technically feasible, but it is still in the experimental stage because of more expenditure, labor, and time. If successful, farmers are expected to increase income by 2,000 yuan per mu."

“The state should also come up with special funds to support cotton farmers in setting up professional cooperatives, achieve unified purchase of seeds, plant seeds, fight drugs, and reduce employment, so as to fundamentally reduce costs and reduce labor intensity,” Ma Junkai told reporters.

Bian Shenggui also believes that cotton should promote large-scale planting. “Further strengthening the management of the transfer of collective land in rural areas can be used to grow cotton in large areas and facilitate mechanization.” At the same time, the reporter learned from the Cotton Association of Shandong Province that at the end of last month, Shandong Province's first fully mechanized demonstration base for cotton settled in Binzhou. The reporter learned that the base was established in Zhanhua County, Binzhou City, and the area of ​​cotton fields was 500 mu. John Deere Company, the world's largest agricultural machine company, provided pull-type row and two row pickers for cotton picking, self-propelled 9970 pickers, and some site preparation and plant protection machines for demonstration in selected project locations. Within the region, we will carry out all-round technical cooperation on the cultivation, planting, management and collection of cotton crops, and explore the complete mechanization plan for cotton production in Shandong.
