What is Organic Cotton?

Organic cotton is cotton that is produced and certified to organic agricultural standards. It’s production sustains the health of soils, ecosystems and people by using natural processes rather than artificial inputs.

What is the difference between organic cotton & cotton?

Conventional cotton uses chemical pesticides in farming to kill pests, bugs, or weeds. Exposure to these leads to illnesses and health issues including Cancer, Reproductivity issues, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, etc. Organic farmers grow cotton. without these synthetic fertilizers or pesticides thereby protecting the soil, the environment, and human health. About 53% of the world’s cotton is irrigated (depleting groundwater) whereas about 70% to 80% of organic cotton is rain-fed, using less water from natural ecosystems. Non-organic cotton uses GMO seeds. Organic farmers choose natural seeds, allowing them better crop rotation. So, organic cotton farming reduces carbon emissions due to crop rotation techniques that keep carbon from entering the atmosphere.

Why Should We Use Organic Cotton?

Organic cotton provides a sustainable living for cotton farmers, it will often be traded along fair principals, so providing a better standard of living for the workers, and it uses safe methods to control the amount of pests which might potentially damage a cotton crop.

Along with the use of natural chilli and garlic repellents, the technique of inter-planting is employed, whereby different crops which detract pests are interspersed or grown side-by-side with the cotton.

In this way the cotton is uncontaminated with poisons, biodiversity is actively increased, the health of the cotton workers is protected, and a secondary crop is also provided which can add an additional income stream for farmers. So next time you buy something made from cotton, think about paying a little more to buy organic.
