The cotton produced in Burkina Faso respects the environmental and sanitary protocols. This gives it the label of ecological cotton or organic cotton. With nearly 11,000 producers, 12,000 tons of cotton are produced per year. But only 2% of this production is processed locally. Faced with the lack of valorisation of this segment of the cotton value chain, which is transformation, an initiative called “Rendez-vous du coton bio” was born. It celebrates the local transformation of cotton, by bringing together all the actors of the sector
