Better Cotton Initiative

About Better Cotton Initiative

The Better Cotton Initiative is the world’s leading sustainability initiative for cotton. Our mission: to help cotton communities survive and thrive, while protecting and restoring the environment. Together we form a network of 2,500+ members committed to cotton that is grown to the Better Cotton Initiative (BCI) Standard, which supports and trains farmers to protect the environment, develop equitable working practices, and improve resilience and income. This standard is a rigorous, accountable and transparent approach to more sustainable cotton farming.
