Who is to deal with US cotton dumping?

Some insiders from China's textile industry are deeply worried about the large-scale entry of foreign cotton, they point out that when Sino-EU and Sino-US textile trade frictions are frequent and continued, if the domestic cotton industry is breakdown, the neck of China's textile materials can easily be choked by foreign countries. By then China's textiles cannot be exported, and the US cotton would no longer be a synonym for high quality and low-cost.

China should help farmers to establish farmers trade associations as soon as possible and to initiate anti-dumping investigations in name of trade associations.

This will not only safeguard the interests of farmers, but also for China to win more chips in trade negotiations with the US and Europe.
