Farmers feed waste cotton from Mills to cattle. If this cotton is spread all over the soil, it covers the entire land. Weeds do not grow. It degrades faster and forms a good manure. It also absorbs and saves rain water. So less water is used to irrigate the land. Onions, Beetroot and Radish that grow on this soil have more weight.
