A balance between development and environmental protection – top quality Pima cotton
Top-quality Pima cotton is at the forefront of innovation in its cultivation and development using state-of-the-art agricultural processes. The farming practices used set the environmental and ethical standards for cotton around the world. Soil is the productive capital of farmers, so efforts are made to maintain soil fertility and increase productivity while maximizing crop yields.
☆ Water resources management ☆
cotton fields to maximize water efficiency. Depending on the topography and specific composition of the soil, farmers choose the best irrigation method; drip irrigation to provide nutrients directly to plants, or flood irrigation to restore soil moisture, replenish aquifers and promote soil health.
☆Soil Conservation☆
Proper farm management includes regular crop rotation to optimize soil health. Annual crop rotation helps keep soil nutrient levels balanced. In addition, advanced technologies are used, such as GPS navigation tractors, which help improve the accuracy and efficiency of sowing and harvesting cotton, and satellite technology to monitor soil to ensure the best soil environment for growth and development.
☆ GPS and Satellite Technology ☆
Use satellite images of fields to understand how fast plants are growing. When growth rates are low, samples will be taken to reveal nutritional needs and determine if there are potential pest problems. Satellite and GPS data enable growers to create detailed historical records for each individual field and accurately monitor status and demand.
STELLAM hopes to promote its commitment to sustainable development by using top-quality Pima cotton and provide consumers with more environmentally friendly choices.
