Inner Mongolia Alashan cotton industry has great potential for development

A few days ago, the Vice President of the Inner Mongolia Academy of Agricultural and Pasturing Sciences and the leader of the Cotton Comprehensive Experimental Station Lu Zhanyuan and his party came to our League to view the Three Flags Cotton Experimental Demonstration Field and the High-yielding Creation Field on the spot, and took part in the cotton experiment demonstration of the 2012 National Cotton Industry System. Conduct inspection instructions. On May 30, the national cotton industry system Inner Mongolia Experimental Station 2012 work conference was held in Bayanhot.

It is understood that in order to ensure the completion of key technologies such as research and demonstration of key technologies for cotton lightening cultivation in the national cotton industry system and key technologies for research and demonstration of key technologies for dryland cotton planting, better solutions will be made to cotton variety mix, water saving in farmland, and cotton yield in Alashan region. On the low level, the Inner Mongolia Cotton Comprehensive Experimental Station deployed specific tasks for 2012 at the beginning of the year. Based on the work in 2011, the AU Workstation continued to conduct cotton assessment tests, irrigation water consumption, irrigation times, irrigation time tests, and demonstration of drip irrigation under cotton film, and 100 acres of high-yield creation activities, increased cotton density test, cotton control test, colored cotton Eco-adaptability observation test and demonstration and promotion of machine-picking cotton demonstration.

The meeting proposed that Alashan is arid and rainy, and its light energy resources are abundant. It is a suitable area for cotton cultivation. In 2011, the success of the 100-acre Qianjin cotton research project in Azuoqi was the first case in the country, which proved that cotton has great potential in the development of Alxa. At present, there are only a few tens of thousands of mu of land suitable for farming in the All-Union, and a small area of ​​cotton cultivation determines that the cotton production in Alashan does not have an advantage when compared with the main cotton-planting areas such as Xinjiang. Therefore, Alashan's cotton industry should combine the development advantages of local tourism and take the path of “small and refined”, self-produced, and local characteristics.
