Recently, the temperature in Wusu City, Xinjiang, has remained at about 20-32 ℃, mainly sunny and cloudy.
According to a local cotton grower, due to the impact of low temperature during the planting period last year, the average per unit yield of the cotton planted by himself was only about 350 kg, and the seed cotton was not sold in time when the price was relatively good, resulting in losses. This year, the average land contract fee reached about 1400 yuan, and the comprehensive planting cost is expected to be more than 3000 yuan/mu.
So far this year, the weather conditions are relatively good, the cotton plant is growing well, with a height of about 40 cm, and a large number of buds appear. According to years of experience in planting cotton, the seedling stage is a relatively fragile period, and more than half of the success will be achieved if it is safely passed. As long as there is no large-scale extreme natural disasters in the later stage, the daily field management is appropriate, and the pests and diseases are well controlled, the high yield can be expected.
