The cotton picked up from the plants still, has its seed in it. These seeds are pulled out of the cotton with the help of steel combs. The process by which cotton fibre is separated from seeds by steel combs is called ginning. Ginning can be done manually and also by machine. The ginned cotton is very light and fluffy occupies a lot of space. For its transportation, the ginned cotton is pressed tightly and packed in bales. Each bale roughly weighs about 200 kg.
It is the process of changing fibre into yarn. The raw cotton is supplied to the industry in the form of bales. This cotton is converted into yarn through the following steps. The process of making yarn from fibres is called spinning.
