Abstract: On the basis of the results of the previous cotton regionalization in Xinjiang, selecting the accumulated temperature ≥10℃, frost-free period and average temperature of July as indicators in Akesu region of Xinjian by regional planning the spatial distribution models were established by using regressive method. Based on GIS, the Akesu region was divided into four cotton planting zones: the premature long-staple cotton area, the premature and mid-mature land cotton area, the premature land cotton area and the extraordinary premature land cotton area.
