Cotton is a natural and renewable fibre, and US cotton producers are leading the way in responsible cotton production practices. US cotton has a track record of continuous improvement with respect to water and crop protection product use, and habitat and soil preservation. The US system’s transparency allows for constant monitoring and improvement. The roughly 18,000 US cotton growers comply with stringent U.S. government regulatory requirements and are committed to the principle of continuous improvement.
At the COTTON USA exhibit, the textile trade also will be able to gather information on how the Cotton LEADSâ„¢ program, initiated by Australia and the United States, offers manufacturers, brands and retailers a reliable cotton supply chain solution and confidence that the raw material used from these countries is responsibly produced and identified.
