Cotton is highly tolerant to soil and water salinity and thus can be grown with water and soil resources than would otherwise be unsuitable for food, feed, and fiber production.
This level of tolerance has allowed the productive use of drainage or reclaimed water that otherwise would have required environmentally challenging waste disposal
Cotton is making great strides in reducing tillage, and adopting Winter/cover crops, which dramatically reduce soil erosion, bringing it into balance with soil creation
