Ginning is the process of separating cotton fibers from their seeds after the cotton has been harvested. This is done using a machine called a cotton gin, which efficiently removes the seeds while preserving the long, fluffy fibers. The ginned cotton fibers, known as lint, are then baled for further processing, while the seeds can be used for oil extraction or as feed. Ginning is a crucial step in preparing cotton for spinning into yarn or fabric.
In a cotton gin, hooks are used to grab and pull cotton fibers from the seed. They help separate the cotton lint from the seeds during the ginning process, facilitating efficient processing. By effectively lifting and moving the cotton, hooks contribute to the overall speed and effectiveness of the cotton ginning operation.

Ginning is the process of separating cotton fibers from the cotton seeds and plant material. This process is typically done using specialized machines called cotton gins, which remove the seeds from the raw cotton to produce lint that can be further processed into textiles.
The process of clearing cotton from the seeds is called ginning.
