Man has always tried to find ways to make life comfortable for himself.

During the stone ages, and early biblical times, animal had many uses, among which was provision of clothing to men.

As time evolved, man found ways to create fabrics, and the most common type of fabric we have in this day and age is cotton.

For many farmers, growing cotton is an avenue out of poverty, and also a means to take care of their families.

However, for many of these farmers, they face a lot of bottlenecks, from the beginning of planting season, all through harvest and then to the market.

Some of the challenges faced are:

• Access to funds
• Access to improved technologies and processes
• Pollution
• Insufficient manpower
• Little or no government support
• Corruption

Majority of the producers of cotton are in third world countries, and all/most of the challenges listed above are the realities of farmers in these countries.
