While many Far West producers continue to battle a number of issues, Chad Crivelli also is fighting to present the environmentally-sustainable side of the cotton industry to the public. Crivelli takes advantage of every opportunity to improve the environmental footprint of his family's cotton operation in Merced County and to show that cotton growers are being proactive.

Since 1999, the Crivellis have been part of the San Joaquin Valley Sustainable Cotton Project, which not only works with growers to develop new, reduced cost and low environmental impact cotton-growing techniques, but also to extol the virtues of sustainable farming practices to those who buy SJV cotton.

"Chad has been an advocate and a public face of the cotton-growing community to hundreds of consumers, educators and fashion industry representatives who have toured valley cotton fields in the past decade," said Marcia Gibbs, director of the sustainable cotton project.
