In the past, the United States was the number one cotton producer in the world. But in recent years, cotton in Xinjiang has developed vigorously. At present, 20% to 30% of the world's raw cotton comes from China.

And 80% of China's raw cotton comes from Xinjiang, a large part of which comes from the Xinjiang production and Construction Corps.

Compared with ordinary cotton, long-staple cotton in Xinjiang has sufficient sunshine and excellent quality.

According to statistics, cotton produced in Xinjiang accounts for more than 20% of the world's cotton output and is a major producer in the global textile supply chain.

The study found that one out of every five pieces of cotton clothing in the world is Xinjiang cotton.

Since around 2000, China has become the largest cotton producer in the world.

At this point, perhaps we will understand why Britain and the United States boycotted Xinjiang cotton.

In recent years, the large-scale development of the western region is the key strategic layout of our country.

Xinjiang has fertile basins and rich resources. If it can be developed and utilized, it will bring huge economic benefits and rejuvenate the brilliance of the Silk Road.
