When you hear the word \"organic,\" most people think of no pesticides and no chemical fertilizers.
\nAlso, it is quite natural to assume that if baby clothes made of organic cotton are pictured with the baby,
\nThey must not have been made with substances that are harmful to the human body.<\/p>\n

But this is unfortunately a misconception. Rather than a misunderstanding, the seller has dared to use misleading expressions.
\nIn conclusion, the concept of \"organic cotton\" has been used as a tool for sales promotion.
\n<\/b><\/p>\n

Numerous chemicals are used in the cultivation of regular cotton.
\nStarting with genetically modified seeds, insecticides, herbicides, chemical fertilizers, hormones, defoliants, desiccants, growth suppressants,
\npod opening regulators and pod opening enhancers (chemicals used to open cotton balls simultaneously), plant growth regulators, the list is endless.
\nIt would be fair to say that the cultivation of cotton is drugging the fields.
\nIt is reported that 25% to 30% of all pesticides used in the world (including insecticides) are used in cotton cultivation.<\/p>\n

\"Organic cotton\" was introduced under the pretense of being free of these chemicals.
\nBecause of the labor-intensive nature of the cultivation process, the price tag was high.
\nSome of you may remember how expensive organic cotton was when it first appeared on store shelves.<\/p>\n

But recently, the price has become much lower. Why is this?
\nThere are a number of reasons.<\/p>\n
