Better Cotton
A standard for more sustainable cotton farming. Licensed farmers sell Better Cotton, and supply chain companies track it through chain-of-custody models, including physically traceable cotton.
Who it affects
Cotton farmers, ginners, spinners, manufacturers and brands.
What it requires
- Farmer licensing against the standard
- Chain-of-custody controls through ginning and spinning
- Volume tracking and claims
How POINT helps
POINT captures this evidence in the field and keeps it linked through every handoff, so it's ready to share when a buyer, auditor or authority asks.
- Farmer and plot registry
- Seed cotton purchase records
- Gin lot and bale traceability
