PROJECT DID NOT SUCEED DUE TO POOR MARKET RESPONSE
DEMAND OF HIGH PRICE BY FARMERS
MAJOR PROBLEM
CONTAMINATION OF WHITE COTTO FIELDS
NECESSARY TO HAVE SEPARATE AREA FOR COLOUR COTTON CULTIVATION

MEANS TO OVERCOME TECHNICAL PROBLEMS
LOW STRENGTH AND POOR SPINNABILITY
BLENDING 30-50% OF WHITE COTTON WITH COLOURED COTTON
CHANGE OF SHADE ON LAUNDERING
ON LAUNDERING SHADE BECOMES DEEPER
ALKALINE SCOURING STABILIZES THE SHADE CHANGE
POOR BLEACHING FASTNESS
DO NOT BLEACH

Dr. B.M. Khadi at the University of Agriculture Science Dharwad
developed
Brown, Green and cream coloured cotton
Seeds available for cultivation
Till 1960 coloured cotton grown in some parts of India was exported to
Japan
Coloured cotton is insect and desease resistant and also drought tolerent
Innovation failed to take market place

The Cottton Project at the college of agriculture, Khandwa is engaged in research to boost the production and productivity of
coloured cotton
In 1996, the centre has been successful in developing a variety of cotton which produces seed cotton having natural almond
brown colour (JCC-1).
There is a vast scope in this direction as such a genotypes will avoid the use of synthetic dyes
the demand of organically grown cotton is increasing very fast.
Some more colours are being developed

Rocklea spinning Mills in collaboration with Australian farmers introduced range of yarns from brown and green
varieties of cotton
Blending of coloured cotton with white cotton in diffferent proporations produce shade
varieties
Australia

In Australia, Jeff & Marilyn Bidstrup, pioneered Australian
coloured cotton,
When blended, this cotton produces a beautiful "Sand Dune"
colour, ideal for our first EcoDownUnder towels.
The Bidstrups are leading the industry with Landcare Australia
awards and minimising their impact on the environment through "dry
land farming" rather than irrigating.
Environmental management by rotating cotton crops every 3
seasons and no harsh chemicals applied to their land for over 3
years has seen yields become some of the highest in the industry.

PRE-HISPANIC GRAVE in the Chancay Valley of Peru is heaped with naturally colored cotton bolls. The ancient people of this coastal area filled the body of the deceased with the cotton, which would absorb the bodily fluids, thereby aiding in the process of mummification. The arid sands of the region preserved the cotton (which was removed from the body when this grave was looted.)

Coloured cotton bolls are hand picked
Small quantity is used for craft production and domestic consumption in rural market.
Large quantity is consumed in uraban market as
textile products
Medical remedy for over fifty somatic and psychosomatic disorders
Colour cotton cultivation by traditional farmers is officially protected
Large number of traditional farmers are immensely benefited
No patents are held on native colored cotton, respecting and promoting the crop
protection rights of the indigenous people of Peru.

Today Indian descendants of ancient Peruvian cultures still harvest, gin and spin by hand the natural colored cottons of Peru.

Sally Fox was introduced to colored cotton while
working for a cotton breeder, whose focus was
developing pest-resistant strains of cotton.
The peoples of Central and South America had spun
these strains for centuries, but the fiber qualities were
not sufficient for modern machine spinning.
Here was Sally Fox’s opportunity to combine her
concern for the environment,
work in her field of entomology,
and practice her favorite pastime, spinning and weaving
![Page 35: Eco fibres and eco friendly textiles 2](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062312/55520b9ab4c905421a8b54c3/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Sally Fox in 1982 took on the challenge of improving an ancient agricultural art.
Fox successfully bred and marketed varieties of naturally coloured cotton she calls FoxFiber ®.
Today, Sally Fox designs fabrics with her cotton and continues research.
Fox has received a patent and three Plant Variety Protection Certificates for her naturally colored cottons which, in addition to browns, she now grows in reds and greens.
Her invention has been so popular it has sprouted two successful companies -- Vreseis, Ltd. and Natural Cotton Colours, both operating in Arizona.

Natural qualities found in Fox Fibre:Furnish lasting color; repeated washings intensify colors bringing out the warm and rich color tones
Enable our cottons to be spun from 100% solid color
to any percentage of color blends. Blends of Fox Fibre colors (with each other or with white) can
create all of the color shades within the beige, khaki, brown, red brown, dark brown, and green color
spectrums
Provide a fire retardant tendency
Eliminate the need for bleaches, dyes, & other costly processes during textile and product manufacturing

Sally Fox is associted with Athena Mills Arizona
Athena Mills is recognized as a leader for two environmentally descriptive trademarks - Colorganic® and Colour-By-Nature®.
Both marks ensure the final product's color is from naturally colored cotton.
Colorganic additionally ensures certified organic growing practices for all of the cotton fibers in the final product.
Fox Fibre offers consumers an ecological alternative in cotton: today's purchase for tomorrow's environment

ECO LABELS
Eco-labels are product labels that
inform consumers about the environmental impact of a
product. They encourage producers to switch to environmentally sound production
process methods (PPMs) for advantage in the marketplace. Eco-labels allow producers to
differentiate their products from products that are less
environmentally friendly and
thus to reach environmentally conscious consumers.
