- All of the cotton used at Under the Nile is not just Organic – it’s Biodynamic. There are no imported fertilizers. Instead, compost comes from trees and livestock and the livestock feed is grown on the farm. Soil fertility within biodynamic farms is delivered through nutrient rich humus created from integrating livestock and rotating crops. Pesticides are not required for biodynamic farms as its biologically diverse habitat encourages predator prey relationships. The humus in the soil is also naturally resistant to insects and disease. Biodynamic is farm focused, and requires the entire farm to be certified.
- USDA Certified Organic Cotton. Cotton is certified by the National Organic Program (NOP), which is strictly regulated by the USDA. The farm that grows this cotton adheres to firm standards at soil and water quality, as well as wetland, woodland and wildlife conservation. Synthetic fertilizers and genetic engineering are strictly prohibited.
