The above statement is true.
Cotton is the most widely used natural fibre. It is a type of plant fibre. Cotton fibres are obtained from the fruits of a cotton plant known as cotton bolls. The cotton boll on maturing burst open, and the cotton plant's seed covered with cotton fibres can be seen. The cotton from these cotton bolls is picked by hand. The fibres are separated from the seeds through a process known as ginning, done by hand or machines.
