In addition to the decline in planting area, extreme weather factors also cause some areas to reduce production.

The proportion of three cotton in main cotton producing provinces such as Hebei and Shandong is less than 30%, and there is a gap between supply and demand in China.

This causes heavy pressure on cotton spinning enterprises which account for more than 60% of cotton cost.

Xinjiang is one of the main cotton producing areas in China, and its output accounts for about 1/3 of the total domestic output.

At present, Xinjiang, Akesu, Bachu, Korla and Kuitun, Shihezi and other major cotton producing areas have taken measures to set up railway lines to rush to pport cotton and give priority to Xinjiang.

It is reported that the station of Urumqi north station has been carrying 4382 cotton wagon since September.
