Our farming practice is lead by the pursuit of climate positive outputs. Good Earth Cotton® demonstrates best-in-practice farming methods that put ecology at the forefront, by always achieving efficient carbon sequestration and minimising emissions for a carbon-positive result.

Our cotton crops are mulched and removed in a way that encourages plant biomass to compost naturally. This process increases soil cover and protection, helping to maintain moisture and providing a food source for microorganisms. Organic amendments are also added to the soil to enhance the active microbiome.

Good Earth Cotton® crops are rotated seasonally with leguminous nitrogen-fixing crops or cereal crops with a fibrous root system. Rotating leguminous crops naturally enhances soil nitrogen levels. Cereal crops, such as wheat, provide superior ground cover that drastically reduces soil erosion and compaction and increases soil moisture.

Precision planting gives optimal spacing of seeds to ensure that cotton plants grow with uniformity. We have found precision planting allows better water and nutritional efficiency for a more consistent and substantial yield output. Precision planting optimises our resources to maximise natural capital use across cotton growth and production.

Good Earth Cotton® uses zero-to-minimum tillage practices to minimise soil disturbance and maximise soil moisture. This allows the soil to maintain nutrients in a biologically sound and natural manner whilst trapping carbon beneath the soil.

Good Earth Cotton® is grown with exceptionally high water use efficiency, tracked in real time using advanced telemetry. “More crop per drop” has been achieved by growing best suited cotton varieties, extensive research, the use of latest technologies and cutting-edge sustainable water management practices which have been industry benchmarked and are recorded daily.
