Iindaba ezikhethekileyo zeChina Cotton Network: Ngokweziphumo zophando ezikhutshwe yiNational Cotton Council (NCC) nge-18 kaFebruwari, i-United States iceba ukutyala umqhaphu ngo-2024, iihektare ezizizigidi ezili-9.8, ukwehla kwe-3.7%.
Ngokukodwa, ngo-2024, indawo yokutyala umqhaphu e-United States iya kuba yi-9.6 yezigidi zeehektare, ukwehla kwe-4.3%, kwaye indawo yomqhaphu ohlala ixesha elide iya kuba yi-202,000 yeehektare, ukunyuka kwe-37.7%.
UJodi Campiche, usekela mongameli kunye nomhlalutyi wezoqoqosho kunye nemigaqo-nkqubo kwi-NCC, uthe i-acreage yenye yezinto ezininzi ezimisela ukubonelelwa komqhaphu kunye nembewu yomqhaphu. Ekugqibeleni, imozulu kunye nemeko-bume yezoqoqosho kwezolimo ziya kuba nefuthe elikhulu kwisivuno.
Isebenzisa isivuno esiphakathi esiphantse sibe yiminyaka elishumi kwaye yenza uhlengahlengiso olufanelekileyo kumazwe aliqela ngokusekelwe kumswakama womhlaba wangoku, i-NCC iceba iihektare eziyi-8.1 yezigidi zomqhaphu wase-US ezivunwe ngo-2024 ngesivuno se-17.9 ekhulwini. Isebenzisa isivuno esiphakathi seminyaka emihlanu edlulileyo kumzantsi-mpuma nakumzantsi-mpuma we-United States kunye nesivuno esiphakathi seminyaka elishumi edlulileyo kwimimandla yomzantsi-ntshona nentshona ye-United States, kuqikelelwa ukuba imveliso yomqhaphu wase-US ngo-2024 iya kuba ziibhali eziyi-14.6 yezigidi, kuquka iibhali eziyi-14 yezigidi zomqhaphu wase-upland kunye neebhali eziyi-538,000 zomqhaphu omude.
Uphando lwe-NCC lugubungele amazwe ali-17 avelisa umqhaphu ukususela phakathi kuDisemba 2023 ukuya phakathi kuJanuwari 2024, lwaza lwabuza malunga ne-acreage etyalwe umqhaphu nezinye izityalo ngo-2023 kunye ne-acreage ecetywayo etyalwe ngo-2024.
UCampiche uthi ngokwembali, abalimi baseMelika baye basabela kumaxabiso athelekisekayo xa besenza izigqibo zokutyala. Xa kuthelekiswa namaxabiso aqhelekileyo exesha elizayo kwikota yokuqala ka-2023, onke amaxabiso eemveliso ayephantsi ngexesha lophando, kodwa umqhaphu ufumene ukwehla okuncinci. Ngenxa yoko, umlinganiselo wamaxabiso omqhaphu kumbona kunye neembotyi zesoya uphezulu kunango-2023. Ngokusekelwe kubudlelwane bamaxabiso embali, oku kudla ngokuthetha ukunyuka kwe-acreage yomqhaphu. Nangona kunjalo, iindleko zemveliso ziphezulu ngo-2024 ngamaxabiso angoku, ngoko ke u-2024/25 unokusebenza ngokuchasene nolu budlelwane.
I-NCC ithe indawo ekulindeleke ukuba kutyalwe kuyo isekelwe kwiimeko zemarike ngexesha lophando kwaye ukutyala okwenyani kuxhomekeke kutshintsho kwiimeko zemarike kunye nemozulu. Abavelisi baya kuqhubeka nokujonga utshintsho kumaxabiso eemveliso kunye neendleko zokufaka ngaphambi kokuba bagqibezele izigqibo zabo ze-acreage zowama-2024. Ukusukela ekupheleni kophando, amaxabiso omqhaphu anyukile, ngelixa amaxabiso ombona kunye neembotyi zesoya ehlile ngakumbi. Utshintsho kumlinganiselo wamaxabiso lunokubangela ukuba i-acreage yomqhaphu ibe phezulu kunokuba kubikwe kuphando lwe-NCC.
