Cotton textile production is highly water-intensive, requiring significant amounts of water for both irrigation of cotton crops and processing the fibers into fabric. On average, it takes about 7,000 to 29,000 liters of water to produce just one kilogram of cotton, depending on the growing conditions and practices used. Additionally, water is used in various stages of textile processing, including dyeing and finishing, further contributing to the overall water footprint. Sustainable practices, such as rain-fed irrigation and efficient processing methods, are crucial to mitigate water usage in the cotton industry.
