Organic Cotton

Organic cotton is a type of cotton that is grown without the use of synthetic pesticides, genetically modified organisms (GMOs), or chemical fertilizers. It is cultivated using methods and materials that have a low impact on the environment. Organic cotton farming relies on practices such as crop rotation, biological pest control, and the use of natural fertilizers to maintain soil fertility and control pests.

To be certified as organic, cotton farmers must follow specific guidelines and standards set by various organic certification organizations, such as the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) or the Organic Content Standard (OCS). These organizations ensure that the entire production process, from the cultivation of cotton plants to the processing and labeling of cotton products, meets the required organic criteria.

Organic cotton has gained popularity due to its environmental benefits. By avoiding the use of synthetic chemicals, it helps protect soil quality, water resources, and biodiversity. It also promotes healthier working conditions for farmers and reduces their exposure to harmful substances. Additionally, organic cotton is often associated with higher social and ethical standards, including fair trade practices.
