Cotton stripper A great deal of manual labour goes into peeling of cotton from shells before the cotton is sold to the mills for ginning and pressing. Specifically the 797 variety which is grown in Banaskantha district of Gujarat needs much manual labour. Mansukhbhai’s innovative cotton peeler mechanises this process and does a better quality output with a far better efficiency. |
