Is it true that taking seeds out of cotton is easier than growing and harvesting it?

Collecting cotton fibers is done mechanically in modern farming, and is one of the least complex procedures in cotton production.Prior to the invention of the cotton gin (cotton engine) by Eli Whitney in 1793, the removal of hulls and seeds was done by hand combing and was a laborious process. The gin changed that and triggered a vast increase in cotton production in the US South, which led directly to the importation of large slave populations.

How is cotton picked now?

Modern cotton picking in the United States is done mechanically by farming machines. Most cotton is harvested by a device simply known as a mechanical cotton picker. Similar to a combine in appearance, the machine plucks off the cotton fiber balls and leaves much of the remaining plant intact. Farmers in Texas will often use a stripper to harvest cotton. Again similar to a combine, this machine strips the plant of fiber, leaves, and stems, then compacts and bales the fiber balls. A few other countries such as Spain and Greece also use the stripper method. Both methods require considerable cleaning of the fiber balls before they are usable as a textile. Most other countries that produce cotton still use the manual or hand-pick method of harvesting.
