In Milek Erike Village, Guleawati Township, Wensu County, villager Turhong Maimaiti always sees new changes in the strong cotton plants every time he comes to the cotton fields.
“The cotton bolls in the cotton fields are already as big as eggs. In more than a month, the cotton bolls will begin to split and spit out white cotton wadding.” On July 29, Turhong, who had returned home from work, went to the city to work. The neighbor called and said.
For cotton farmers such as Turhong who have been planting cotton for 20 years, cotton blooming and boll formation is nothing new. However, with the rapid development of the cotton industry in recent years, every growth period of cotton can trigger their discussion. Every link in the cotton industry chain can make them feel novel.
Turhong’s family has 20 acres of cotton fields. Ten years ago, the family was too busy working in the fields. Especially during the cotton harvest season, they had to ask for help. “Now, let alone 20 acres of land, I can handle 200 acres of land by myself. The entire process from planting to harvesting is mechanized, saving time, effort and cost.” He said with satisfaction.
In Shaya County, the national high-quality cotton production base, in 2017, the county undertook a 500,000-acre high-efficiency water-saving and income-increasing pilot project in southern Xinjiang, and promoted rural land remediation and high-standard farmland construction on a large scale. The land was fragmented and operations were dispersed. Problems such as diversification, large number of employees, and low level of organization are easily solved. Farmers have achieved historic changes when growing cotton, including watering without a shovel, picking up flowers without bending down, mechanical land preparation, precision sowing, drone spraying, high-efficiency water-saving drip irrigation, and cotton picking machines. At the same time, on the basis of confirming land rights, the government guides farmers to invest in cooperatives with land management rights, freeing farmers from small-scale land management to engage in other production operations or work outside the country.
Cotton is grown every year, and there is technological innovation and promotion every year. The reporter learned from the Agricultural and Rural Affairs Bureau of Aksu Region that this year, Aksu Region has vigorously promoted high-efficiency water-saving drip irrigation, “dry sowing and wet seeding” and full-process mechanized picking technology, completing 7.41 million acres of cotton planting. Among them, the “one main and two auxiliary” variety layout continues to remain above 85%, the machine-harvested planting mode covers an area of 7.09 million acres, and the “dry sowing and wet sowing” sowing is completed at 515,200 acres. Advanced planting technology not only saves costs and increases efficiency, but also improves the cotton emergence rate and advances the cotton growth process.
In the Kuqa Economic and Technological Development Zone, cotton has transformed from a thread into a piece of cloth, and from a piece of cloth into a piece of ready-made clothing. After deep processing of small cotton seeds, various products such as linters, cotton hulls, cotton oil, and concentrated protein are produced, which increases the value of cotton seeds several times.
AksuTextile Industry City (Development Zone), established in October 2010, is the southern part of the Xinjiang textile and garment industry’s “three cities, seven parks and one center” layout. The capital city of Xinjiang. A total of 108 textile and garment enterprises have been introduced here, forming a production capacity of 3.35 million spinning spindles, 3,207 looms, 40 million pieces (sets) of clothing and home textiles, and 3,500 knitting machines. Aksu Region’s “One City, Four Parks” is working hard to build a full industrial chain of spinning, printing and dyeing, weaving, home textiles, and clothing, striving to build a tens-billion-scale textile and clothingindustrial cluster Move forward.
Focusing on the cotton industry chain, agricultural machinery projects such as cotton pickers, precision seeders, unmanned plant protection machines, and mulching film recycling machines, processing projects such as recycling cotton straw to make boards and processing feed, and breeding projects for fine cotton varieties, are The Aksu region is also developing in full swing, which has continuously enriched the connotation and expanded the extension of the cotton industry.
