What Else Does The New Cotton Market Care About?

Near September, cotton in Xinjiang, Yellow River Basin and Yangtze River Basin, the main cotton production areas in China, have begun to open bolls. With the increase of boll opening, cotton farmers in sporadic areas have begun to harvest. Under the disturbance of the new crown epidemic this year, the cotton market demand declined, which brought pressure to the production and operation of the upstream and downstream enterprises in the industrial chain. Recently, the market has different opinions on the new year's cotton open scale price, but from the discussion of some cotton enterprises and textile enterprises, it is found that in addition to the open scale price, there are also some factors that seem to attract market attention.

After the summer solar term, some areas again ushered in heavy rainfall recently. Nine provinces in Inner Mongolia, Jilin, Liaoning, Beijing, Sichuan and Shaanxi issued rainstorm warning today. In particular, the recent landing of Typhoon "Bawei" No.8 will have a certain impact on the East China Sea. At the same time, the National Oceanic forecast station has issued an orange wave warning. Today, there have been showers in many places in Shandong Province, which has brought adverse effects to the cotton boll cracking and boll opening. Although the sown area of cotton in the mainland is small, it is widely distributed and scattered. If excessive precipitation continues to occur during the cotton picking period, it will inevitably affect the color and maturity of cotton, and reduce the quality and yield of cotton. Therefore, both ginning plants and cotton farmers are still concerned about the recent meteorological situation, and said that they will harvest in time according to the progress of boll opening.

Compared with the mainland's concerns about the weather, cotton farmers in Xinjiang cotton growing areas pay more attention to the development of new cotton defoliation, and find suitable cotton picker. Due to the sufficient accumulated temperature in Xinjiang this year and the cotton mature time ahead of time, some Xinlu early varieties in Northern Xinjiang can be sown with defoliant agent on September 5. However, strict epidemic control has delayed the progress of maintenance of some agricultural machinery, and the harvest time of mechanical cotton harvesting is excessively concentrated. Cotton farmers are worried about finding cotton pickers every year in the harvest period. This year, we should not only try to go out, but also look for agricultural machinery in time , which increases the difficulty of the preparatory work.

In addition, since August, Zheng cotton has continued to fluctuate and has not made effective breakthroughs, which makes ginning enterprises, traders and downstream textile enterprises seem to have more than enough energy, and the processing, purchasing and marketing work is carried out slowly. At the same time, the repeated trade relations between China and the United States, how the two countries evaluate the progress, and whether the United States will again impose pressure on China when the general election is approaching will have an impact on cotton prices in the new year. Therefore, we still need to make overall plans and make comprehensive preparations.
