Answer

The stages in Ginning of Cotton are-

  1. The cotton first goes through the dryers to reduce moisture content.
  2. Then, it goes through the cleaning equipment to remove foreign matter.
  3. The cotton is then air conveyed to gin stands where its circular saws pull the lint through closely spaced ribs that prevent the seed from passing through.
  4. The lint is removed from the saw teeth by rotating brushes and then compressed into bales.
