Abstract:

To explore the high yield cultivation of cotton in Shanxi Province, we analyzed the county-level planting patterns in Shanxi and discussed the fertilization techniques of cotton production. Based on China Statistical Yearbook, Shanxi Statistical Yearbook, and the publications on CNKI over the years, the current situation of county-level cotton planting in Shanxi was analyzed. The research showed that the cultivated area in Shanxi had been basically stable since 2010, but the cotton planting area has a significant decrease, the area was only 2870 hm 2, in 2017. Cotton planting has been replaced gradually by the orchard year by year. The main cotton planting areas in Shanxi are distributed in Linfen and Yuncheng, the yield per unit in Yuncheng is relatively high, which is more than 1 t/hm2 in most counties. Based on the publications of CNKI, we summarized 408 papers on cotton planting in Shanxi from 2010 to 2019, and found few reports on the fertilization research of cotton yield increase techniques. Thus, it is suggested to enhance cotton fertilization technique system and establish cotton nutrient expert system to promote a healthy and sustainable development of cotton industry.
