Cotton had to be picked by hand and the invention of the cotton gin allowed for more cotton to be processed. Cotton is a versatile material and can be used by many industries especially textile and clothes.
It has a significant dependence on the number of people cleaning. I imagine that worldwide it would be millions of pounds per day.
The difference is in your vocabulary. Cotton exists in many forms, from the raw botanical lint inside the boll to fine cotton thread or yarn. Cotton knit is simply one form of cotton that has been processed by knitting.
A bale of cotton typically weighs around 227 kilograms or 500 pounds.
a slave plantation is a place where the slaves used to work. many of these were sugar and cotton fields, in which the slaves would pick the sugar canes and cotton from the plant to later be processed.
The cotton yield forecast is 685 pounds per acre, down 367 pounds from last year's yield. See the related link below.
The number of cotton shirts that will weigh 2 pounds will vary depending on the weight of each individual shirt. You would need to know the weight of one shirt in order to calculate how many shirts would make 2 pounds in total.
A slave would have to pick an average of 200lbs of cotton each day. A bole of cotton is 40 grams or .08lbs, so on average they would pick 2500 boles of cotton. I'm not a historian so this many vary because of different circumstances. This is just an average number.
605 = 3.5 * w + f (w = pounds per hour, f = fixed overhead time) 2100 = 10 * w + f 2100 - 605 = 6.5 w w = 230 f = --200 Equation is: Amount processed = (230 lbs/hour * hours) - 200 Amount processed in 12 hours = 12 * 230 - 200 2560 pounds. (which is 2 x 230 or 460 lbs more than in 10 hours) -MathSmart from Hillsborough, NJ)
