Exclusive news from China Cotton Network: As the temperature rises, spring sowing has begun in southern Xinjiang. A cotton farmer in Kuqa, Xinjiang, said that the local spring sowing work has gradually begun since April 3. At present, the procurement of spring sowing materials for cotton farmers has basically ended. However, due to machine limitations, some farmers can only sow in turns. The cotton farmer said that because cotton yields were better last year, all 700 acres of land will still be planted with cotton this year.
It is understood that in order to prevent the decline in cotton quality this year, the relevant local departments have changed the way cotton farmers purchase cotton seeds, from the original purchase by each household to The cooperative purchases uniformly. It is understood that cotton farmers have selected two varieties out of the five varieties purchased.
