Answer» At a time when we have machines for everything, it is a rare sight to see someone handpicking cotton bolls. But I got the opportunity when I went to my uncle’s place in Gujarat. It’s very interesting to watch cottonpicking. I saw labourers wearing white cloth around their head and picking cotton bolls. They carried long bags into which they put the cotton bolls that they had picked. The cotton plants do not grow very high. Hence it is easier for people to pick cotton with their bare hands. They make way for themselves amidst the plants and pick cotton bolls. (Note: A cotton boll is actually the blossom of cotton that gets picked off the plant before it is processed. A cotton ball is a ball of refined cotton that is sold in shops.)
