On August 4, the wheat price on the Chicago Futures Exchange was close to $7 per bushel, and the cumulative increase was over 60%. In addition, from the middle of June till now, the price of corn futures has increased by nearly 20% over the same period, and the soybean futures price has increased by 10% since the beginning of July. Under the support of the upward movement of the prices of major agricultural products, the price of the international fertilizer market remained strong in the past two weeks, and both urea and diammonium rose slightly. According to the IFA report, due to the highly volatile food prices and fertilizer prices in the world in 2008/09, farmers have reduced or postponed input of fertilizers; as the market recovers, the world demand for fertilizers began to rebound in 2009/10, and farmers sought more stability. The market return will further increase fertilizer input in maintaining or improving soil fertility.
From the domestic market point of view, the latest statistics released by the National Bureau of Statistics show that in July, the CPI rose by 3.3%, reaching a new high during the year, and the proportion of the increase driven by the increase in agricultural products accounted for 2.3%. In the near future, ready-to-use fertilizers in the north of the country are in the fall, and during late-season rice cultivation in the south, demand for fertilizers is steadily increasing. Urea, compound fertilizer, and phosphate fertilizer prices remain within a relatively stable price range in the end market. At the same time, the price of agricultural futures in the international market has brought pressure on the domestic market. The price of domestic wheat futures contracts has risen to over RMB 2,400/ton, which is much higher than the spot price. For a period of time, the high price of agricultural products has increased the planting enthusiasm of farmers in the main wheat producing areas in the north to a certain extent. The market generally believes that the possibility of a substantial drop in prices in the afternoon is unlikely and will continue to maintain the current stable prices.
Some domestic scholars have found that the correlation between the critical value of grain and fertilizer prices and grain production found that the ratio of grain to fertilizer is between 3:1 to 3.5:1 (ratio of pure nutrient content between chemical fertilizer and grain price) is a reasonable space for increasing grain yield and yield. . Specific to grain varieties, the ratio of grain to grain in rice and wheat is 2.5:1 to 3.0:1, and the ratio of corn to grain and grain is fluctuating from 3.5:1 to 4.0:1. According to the current domestic fertilizer prices and grain prices, the ratio of fertilizer to grain is about 2:1, that is, the output of farmers is greater than the actual input of chemical fertilizers, and the income from grain production has increased substantially.
In the international market, the prices of agricultural futures have risen sharply. With the positive recovery of farmers’ incomes in the domestic market, there is reason to believe that the prices of chemical fertilizers will continue to be strong.
The Rapier Loom is the most commonly used version of shuttle-less weaving machinery. Its primary features include fast weaving speed, high level of automation, and maximum efficiency. In addition to the said characteristics which are inherited from previous shuttle-less weaving machines, the rapier loom also has its own advantage over them. For instance, its positive weft insertion mechanism is suitable for weaving a variety of fiber yarns. Moreover, the unique weft color choosing system allows maximum 16 colors of filing picks to be woven. With all those matchless features available at a low price, the loom has seed wide use in weaving dyed yarn, towel, silk weave, wool fabric, and bast fabric. It also provides an ideal solution for small batch production of fancy cloth.
Advances in weaving technology will continue to increase the variety of looms to fit the specific request of consumers. Below are the detailed descriptions of the benefits for using rapier looms
Extensive Applications
The state of the art rapier loom
is no longer picky about the texture, specification, and pattern of the textile
raw material, whether it be hydrophobic or hydrophilic, natural fibers like
cotton, flax, wool, and silk or such chemical fibers as dacron and chinlon,
super fine yarn or super bulky yarn, lightweight and thin yarn or thick and
heavy weight yarn, or yarn with simple patterns or complex patterns. As long as
you choose the correct machine model along with proper weaving process, you can
get satisfying products.
Versatility
The rapier loom when equipped with the dobby
device, or rather, the electronic dobby loom allows operators to change the
weaving patterns conveniently. That being said, the loom can be converted to
accommodate another variety of product.
Potential Products
The quality, rich-colored fabrics
manufactured by the rapier loom possess huge potential on the market. The rapier
loom makes new product development a possibility.
1. Equipped with the electronic dobby system, the rapier loom can meet the
rapidly-changing demands for new products. Controlled by the micro-computer, the
electronic dobby system can provide various weft counts in a warp and weft weave
pattern via the programming system. The wide range of complex weaving patterns
create added value for the fabric manufacturer. While the dobby loom is running
in faster, more accurate movement, it also increases the variations of warp
patterns, thereby facilitating the development of new warp weaving process.
What's more, the complex warp weaving pattern is hard to be duplicated by other
manufacturers, thus protecting the new process from being copied.
2. The
rapier loom relies on the rapier to carry the weft across the warp sheet.
Therefore, the loom can insert literally any kind of filling picks into the warp
as long as the pick can be carried by the rapier. Based on this proven theory,
we can use the rapier loom to weave various stretch fabrics like the stretch
poplin, stretch denim, and stretch corduroy. When weaving those fabrics, the
loom has overcome the common problems such as undesired double pick and weft
kink face by previous weaving machines.
3. When fitted with the highly
advanced weft selection device, our electronic dobby loom can construct complex
2-pick and 3-pick weave.
4. The strong battening force and the strong
temple(which can hold the whole width of the fabric and assures the fabric to be
firm), along with the tall back warp beam ensure the fabric is tightened under
high tension throughout the weaving process.
5. The rapier loom, when
equipped with jacquard shedding system, can fabricate weave complex jacquard
pattern. If used in combination with the hot cutter and heat setting device, the
loom can be used to weave product trademarks. It can fabricate top-class weaves
when equipped with selvedge forming device and carving device. Others can be
sued to craft terry towels.
Further benefits of using the rapier loom include complete functions, high production efficiency, high automation, safe operation, low noise, and good weaving quality. Those advantages have made our rapier loom stand out from market competition.
