Answer 1

You have to get the seeds out of cotton to make it very useable. If you have to pick the cotton and take the seeds out by hand it takes a long time and you won't produce very much of it. If you have a machine that cuts down on the labor involved, you can make more of it and sell more at cheaper prices. So you make more money.
