Cashmere Prices Remain Low, Reappearing "Sell Hard" Trend

The herdsmen of the herat grassland in Inner Mongolia ushered in the golden period of livestock production. This year, Bayannaoer City

Up to more than 650 tons.

However, cashmere prices are on the decline compared with the annual output of cashmere.

Located in the foot of the two wolf mountain, the URAT is the famous two wolf mountain cashmere main producing area.

Bartle, the herdsman, reluctantly sold more than 150 kilograms of quality cashmere at the price of 310 yuan per kilogram. He said that this is far from the price he expected, and the price of last year's price is even better than that: "the price of each pile in our mountain can be sold to 140~150 yuan. The beach fleece and the pile down (agricultural products) are simply not inquired, that is 100 yuan."

And in the Urad rear banner, Gwen, the town of Rouga, the herdsmen, the tower of the Kuri Gaga family, because it was made of beach velvet, no merchants went to buy it.

Tower ice Ji day said, because it is difficult to sell, some pastoral homes last year's old pile is still in the hands.

In 2012, there were 8 million 390 thousand goat goats in Bayannaoer and more than 650 tons of cashmere.

However, as the largest production base in the country without plush, in recent years, due to the reduction of foreign orders, many of Bayannaoer's Woolen processing enterprises have been converted to high return real estate or other industries, so that the large number of local velvet mainly depends on buyers from Ningxia and Hebei provinces.

In 2011, the quality of Bayannaoer velvet was sold to 430 yuan per kilogram at the beginning of the acquisition of cashmere, and the price of the beach flannel was sold to 320~340 yuan per kilogram. However, there was no mass purchase in the end, and 50% of the city's original velvet was unsalable, but this year there was a great repeat.

Herdsman Bartle said: "at present, the price of cashmere is too low, we really can not accept it, all prices are rising, only the herdsman's cashmere prices to this level, very sad, very troublesome."

As the demand for cashmere decreased, cashmere prices dropped significantly, and 190 tons of cashmere in the city of Bayannaoer after the purchase were not purchased in Inner Mongolia.

In the hands of herdsmen.

J Zhigubattle is the latter of the latter, and he has more than 600 sheep, 300 goats in the family. He has already finished the pile, and the more than 120 kilos of cashmere have been piled up at home.

J Zhigulenbattle's neighbor, the singer, is in the mountains and has more than 300 sheep in his family. He has seized 100 kilograms of wool this year.

In the first two days, because of the unstable price of cashmere and so on, the price of cashmere was sold at 250 yuan per kilogram.

There are 500 thousand white cashmere goats in the latter, and 200 tons of cashmere this year. Up to now, more than 95% cashmere have not been sold.

Grzyle, the herdsman, counted out an account. According to the average cashmere price of 260 yuan per kilogram in recent years, a sheep produced an average of 0.5 kilos of cashmere, while a goat needs 90~100 yuan for forage every year, and the income of herdsmen cashmere is very low.

At present, the relevant departments in Bayannaoer are doing statistics, thorough investigation and investigation work, so as to come up with better solutions to help herders tide over difficulties.

Some flag county governments have also contacted villus enterprises such as Linhe and Ordos to actively seek a way out for the sale of fluff.

Two Langshan white cashmere goats are the main livestock of the Urad rear banner. They are distributed in the Yinshan Mountain Line and in the North Hill area, accounting for more than 90% of the livestock heads. It is a fine strain of Inner Mongolia white cashmere goats and is widely recognized as a valuable animal.

It is understood that in recent years, herdsmen introduced the Liaoning cashmere goat for crossbreeding improvement in order to pursue the production of cashmere. Although the yield increased, the fineness index decreased significantly, and the pure two Langshan cashmere goat strain was severely damaged.

After the determination of relevant departments, the fineness of Liaoning cashmere goats is between 17.1 microns and 19.2 microns, almost the same as wool, resulting in a marked decline in cashmere prices and a sluggish sales.

In addition,

The reduction of demand and the pressure of economic situation are two major factors leading to the cashmere price decline.

Although the latter started in 2008, three breeding livestock sites have been set up in the pastoral area of the mountain area. However, many years of drought and snowstorm and the decline in the price of wool in recent two years have led to the slow growth rate of white cashmere goats in the latter area.

In view of the decline in cashmere prices and the decrease in demand for cashmere, many herdsmen in the latter area are adjusting their herd structure and developing sheep to increase their income.
