flag Xinjiang’s advanced farming tech drives China’s record 2025 cotton harvest of 7.22 million tons.

flag Xinjiang, China’s top cotton region, is driving a national production surge with record yields and advanced farming tech. flag In 2025, China’s cotton output is projected to reach 7.22 million metric tons, the highest since 2013, fueled by near-total mechanization—over 90% of picking and 97% overall—and smart systems like AI, drones, and precision irrigation. flag These innovations cut water use by over 1,200 cubic meters per hectare, boost yields to 7,935 kg per hectare, and allow fewer workers to manage larger areas. flag Over 1,200 farms now use digital tools across 46,700 hectares, while self-developed cotton varieties make up 85% of the market, including experimental strains for high-value products.
