In the textile industry has struggled, a country if increase next year cotton price collection, certainly will will increase textile enterprise production cost and make textile enterprise business down.

In April, the Yangtze river and Yellow River basin in cotton production began to enter the cotton planting preparation phase, a period of the cotton price stability for the improvement of cotton farmers grow activity and stability cotton planting area is very critical. And the new financial reporter recently also understood that, at present the country for cotton upstream and downstream of the many policy measures for industry is facing a dilemma: a story to prevent MianJia down significantly, protection ZhongMian cotton farmers income; A textile enterprise to consider the current situation of management, promote the textile enterprise production will start. Whether the next year to determine the price of cotton collection, or cotton slippery must import quotas issued tax of all show the policy choices of careful and hardship.

Collection selection dilemma price

To stabilize the MianJia, improve cotton farmers grow enthusiasm, early march, countries announced ahead of the next year cotton price collection, compared with the previous year up 600 yuan per ton, to 20400 yuan/ton, this time to raise prices, national related departments the careful consideration, of the interests of a careful balance, on the one hand, the price can not too low, to ensure the cotton farmers can't lose money management, on the other hand, can't too high, want to consider the downstream of the textile industry to bear ability. So, even though the price is 19800 yuan/ton last year up the price of 600 yuan/ton, but in the interview reporter discovery, the common psychological expectations cotton farmers than this price.

"Every tons improve 600 yuan, also is equivalent to improve 1 cent per jins seed cotton, to increase income per 50 yuan, compared to grow food or lower." Shandong province is introduced a cotton farmers. "This price though not losing money, but also make no money. Now the country on food purchase price more and more high, but cotton and time consuming consumption force, cotton human cost more and more expensive, according to the present price as grain, or simply work out more cost-effective some."

The planting cotton relative to other crops for lack of competitive advantage, 2012 domestic cotton planting area of obvious downward trend, the national cotton market monitoring system of the march survey, the national cotton area more intention last year fell 9%. In planting showed before the end, actual planting area may appear certain adjustment, but in 2012 the domestic cotton planting area significantly reduce has become the fact that does not dispute. Earlier, according to the current situation of cotton cotton farmers cost growth, widely expected 2012 cotton price or temporary collection will be increased 5%, if press last year 19800 yuan/ton price estimates, namely every tons about improving 1000 yuan, but eventually improve the 600 yuan only. Some market participants to tell new financial reporter, the increase in the price of cotton collection range far below market expectations, the main consideration to the current domestic textile industry facing the survival pressure.

Countries futures industry LiuChunFang tell new cotton researcher financial reporter, since the second half since last year, the international market downturn in demand for cotton, and domestic demand growth is slowing, many textile enterprise reflects, and at present very few receives big order, basic it is small and medium-sized order. In addition, textile enterprise management is also facing labor, electricity, capital and other costs continue to increase, the enterprise financing, financing expensive, environmental protection for problems such as pressure increases. In the textile industry has struggled, a country if increase next year cotton price collection, certainly will will increase textile enterprise production cost and make textile enterprise business down.

Slippery must extend tax quota problem

In addition to the collection price reflects the helpless, at present the industry of common concern to the slippery must extend tax quota problem also reflects countries in cotton textile industry of policy choice hesitate.

Since last year, the production sharply increased demand, and the influence of the marked slowdown, international MianJia keep falling, and domestic to 19800 yuan/ton because the price of the collection, the cotton price to form apparent "TuoDe" effect, the domestic cotton prices higher than international market. The new financial reporter learned that, by the end of march, the domestic cotton market price is in 19500 yuan/ton, than the price is about to cotton port 2000 yuan/ton, higher than the average market price abroad RMB 3000 to 4000 yuan/ton, India, Pakistan and other countries enterprise cost is lower than our country cotton $7000-8000 yuan/ton.

Also at the end of march, the country is still not sent 2012 years cotton slippery must tax quotas, because the quotas on, allowing large Numbers of small and medium-sized textile enterprise cannot purchase international low price of cotton. The huge cost difference makes our country cotton cotton textile influence international competitiveness, India, Pakistan, Vietnam and other countries with lower than our advantage price cotton yarn, preempted the many market share. "India cotton prices domestic cotton prices also cheap we made of cotton yarn, we, cloth, clothing still how can spell had somebody else." In the interview, hebei a textile enterprise TanXiaoHu to the person in charge of the new financial reporters.

Because of the lack of cost advantages, China's textile and clothing export market began to other countries loss. According to statistics, 2011, India, Pakistan, Vietnam and other countries with cotton cost advantages, at the China market share in the United States, the United States JinKouMian products in the decrease in the number of 59% of the part from China and southeast Asian countries to the United States export growth in the number of of China's the decline of 54%.

LiuChunFang tell new financial journalist, every year about from the international market in China import about 3 million tons of cotton in order to meet the demand of domestic cotton textile enterprise cotton, so far, the country only issued 894000 tons of 1% tariff quotas, due to this part of the quota tariff level is low, only to have the certain scale of the advantages of the enterprise to get, so for most of the small and medium enterprise in cotton, can only wait for higher tax rates of slippery must tax quotas parts. And so far, the country continued failure to slip the quotas issued must tax main reason is that control JinKouMian quantity, stable domestic cotton prices. Because the present JinKouMian profit space bigger, if this time must import quotas issued slippery tax, import a lot of cotton into certainly will will increase domestic cotton supply amount, thus to domestic cotton price formation pressure is now in the key period of cotton planting, a period of stability for the improvement of the MianJia cotton farmers growing enthusiasm was key. Therefore, at least in April showed planting until the end of the slippery must less likely to extend tax quotas.

Slippery must tax has been slow to release quotas, cause a lot to outside the port of cotton can't declaration into the domestic market, and some of the cotton importers and even ask for the foreign extend the shipment date backward delayed 1 to 2 months or the shipment in far according to the contract, which made the 3-April shipment cotton very little, some simply not in recent months outside the cotton price, only port bonded cotton spot a quotation. At the same time, because of shortage of quotas, had issued 1% tariff quotas of transfer price is rising. According to the survey, by the end of march, port of Qingdao port 1% of tariff quotas transfer price has reached 2700-2800 yuan/ton, however, due to the number of quotas are very nervous, plus the price in internal and external 2000 yuan/ton still above, so although price is high but not quota sorrow transfer, and large and medium-sized enterprise and no cotton in March or April of tariff quotas to use, but want to "good steel on the on the edge", once high domestic cotton supply shortage later, will decrease as far as possible from the land store selling purchase cotton, vigorously to make up for the import of cotton gap.

On one hand ZhongMian cost is high, cotton sales price low, cotton cotton farmers enthusiasm is not high, On the other hand is sluggish demand, textile and garment decline in demand, the domestic MianJia relative international market obvious on the high side, make domestic textile enterprise competitive advantage decline. One side to protect planting, side to promote textile, how to give consideration to the interests of all parties, domestic cotton textile policy become market focus.
