Cottonseed Oil Production:Â The seeds extracted from raw cotton are processed to produce cottonseed oil, a valuable cooking oil rich in Vitamin E and low in saturated fat, making it a healthy choice for culinary uses.
Animal Feed:Â The by-products of cotton processing, such as cottonseed meal, serve as a nutritious feed for livestock, enhancing their diet with protein and essential nutrients.
Medical Applications:Â Raw cotton is used in medical supplies such as cotton wool, bandages, and gauze due to its absorbent and hypoallergenic properties.
Environmental Benefits:Â Cotton cultivation supports sustainable agriculture practices. Cotton plants improve soil health and biodiversity, contributing to environmental conservation efforts.
