CCI Representative Peush Narang noted that India\u2019s pivotal role in global cotton consumption was central to the in-depth discussions on U.S. cotton\u2019s trajectory within the global and Indian textile sectors. \u201cU.S. cotton plays a critical role in India\u2019s dynamic textile industry,\u201d said CCI Director of South Asia Will Bettendorf. \u201cThe high quality of U.S. cotton combined with innovation, responsible production and technology\u2014which the U.S. cotton industry has pioneered\u2014will influence the global and Indian textile industries\u2019 future. U.S. cotton combined with the ingenuity of the Indian textile mills yields an excellent, sustainable and high-quality product for India\u2019s leading export markets.\u201d COTTON USA SOLUTIONS\u00ae is one of the innovative programs that differentiates U.S. cotton through data, service and intelligence.

India and Sri Lanka boast more than 115 Trust Protocol members. \u201cThe Trust Protocol brings quantifiable and verifiable goals and measurement to the key sustainability metrics of U.S. cotton production, but our U.S. growers have always been innovators in sustainability,\u201d Bettendorf said. Supima President &amp; CEO Marc Lewkowitz reinforced the U.S. industry\u2019s dedication to responsible fiber production, noting that the Trust Protocol and Supima have collaborated to deliver supply chain traceability and provide access to farm-level, science-based data. He also premiered Supima\u2019s AQRe\u2122 Project, a new platform to facilitate the real-time, credible and responsible sourcing of textiles made with Supima cotton. \u201cIndia is a key textile sector player making both apparel and home products,\u201d Lewkowitz said. \u201cDespite India\u2019s extensive cotton production, there is a distinct value-added role for U.S. cotton to play.
