Indian Jute Sector at a Glance
• Jute is the second largest cash crop in India, after cotton
• Globally jute holds the second rank in terms of natural fibreproduction
• Two major types of Jute Plants (Tossa & White)
• The fibre is obtained from the bark of the plant after retting andthe stem is used primarily as domestic fuel
• Jute is a ligno-cellulogic (bio degradable) and yearly renewablenatural bast fibre with golden & silky shine
• It is the cheapest bast fibre (other bast fibres are Flax, Hemp,Ramie, etc.)
• Jute products are bio-degradable and environment-friendly

Product Mix of Indian Jute Industry
Application of Jute as Geotextile –
Jute Geotextile (JGT)
High moisture absorbing capacity
Good drapability
High initial tensile strength
Excellent frictional coefficient between jute & soil
Excellent integration with the soil
Can be tailor-made
Biodegradable and improves soil structure
Renewable resource and easily available
Economical
Favourable Properties of JGT
Protection of earth-slopes
Stabilization of embankments of roads & railways
Control of erosion of banks of rivers & waterways
Strengthening of roads, including heavy haul roads
Control of railway track settlement
Consolidation of soft soil
Construction of concealed drains in hill roads

Application of Jute as Agrotextile –
Jute Agrotextiles (JAT)
High water holding capacity as compared to synthetic materials
Jute coalesces with soil after degradation and increases its
permeability and supplementing its nutrient level
Fosters faster growth of vegetation even in arid and semi-arid zones
Suppress weed-growth effectively without use of chemical
weedecides
Jute sleeves are porous, ensures better aeration and can be directly
planted within the soil
Packed agro products remain fresh

Biodegradation of Jute and PP
* University of Boras, Report No. 2011.7.8# Journal of Biotechnology, 2001
• Degrades to the extent of 98 % within 150 daysby composting (ASTM D6400-04 – IJIRA study)
• Degrades in soil by about 42% in three months(Swedish School of Textiles)*.
• Life expectancy of synthetic bags is200 years in buried applications
• Under exposed application the life ofsynthetic bags is about 20 years#
