Cotton farming can be harmful to soil health due to excessive water usage, pesticide and fertilizer runoff leading to soil contamination, and soil erosion due to intensive farming practices. These activities can degrade soil quality, reduce fertility, and harm overall ecosystem balance. Organic and sustainable farming practices can help mitigate these impacts.
To keep the Earth usable in cotton farming, practices such as crop rotation, cover cropping, reducing chemical pesticides and fertilizers, and implementing water conservation techniques have been used. These methods help maintain soil health, minimize environmental impact, and promote sustainable cotton production.
As large as the earth is, not much is available for farming. It is estimated that only about 1/32 of the earth is arable or able to be farmed efficiently. That is about 615,312.5 square miles.
Um I'm pretty sure that cotton takes a lot of nutrients from the soil without putting any back in so over a long period of time only growing cotton in a field the soil will be lacking in many nutrients.
Approximately 0.3% of Earth's water is usable by humans, with the majority being found in groundwater, rivers, and freshwater lakes. The rest is stored in oceans, ice caps, and glaciers.
Earth's usable water is primarily found in the form of surface water in lakes, rivers, and oceans, and in underground aquifers. This water is essential for activities such as drinking, agriculture, and industry. However, only a small percentage of Earth's total water supply is considered usable for human consumption and activities.

1% of water is usable in this case .Since only 3% of water is usable as fresh water, 2% is unavailable in frozen form leaving approximately 1% of the earth's water usable.
