The Better Cotton Initiative (BCI) — a global not-for-profit organisation — is the largest cotton sustainability programme in the world. In the 2018-19 cotton season, 2.3 million BCI Farmers received training on more sustainable farming practices and produced 5.6 million tonnes of Better Cotton – that equates to 22% of global cotton production. BCI Cotton aims to transform cotton production worldwide by developing Better Cotton as a sustainable mainstream commodity.BCI exists to make global cotton production better for the people who produce it, better for the environment it grows in and better for the sector’s future.
