describe how jute is obtained from jute plant?
Answers
After harvesting jute, it is kept submerged in water for a few days.
During this period, the stem of the plant rots and the fibres (present in the stem) remain. The process by which fibres are obtained from the stem of the plant is known as Retting .
These fibres can then be separated from the non-fibrous matter by hand. This process is known as Stripping.
After the fibres are separated, they can be spun into yarns and fabrics can be made from these yarns.

Jute plants are usually harvested after they bloom but before the flower go to seeds.The stem of the harvested plants cut close to the ground . The stems are tied into bundles and immerged in water for few days. The stems begin to rot .this process is called retting.the fibres are then separeted and washed in clear running water .then they are hung up or spread on thatched roofs to dry.
