Answer:

Retting is a process employing the action of microorganisms and moisture on plants to dissolve or not away much of the cellular tissues and pectins surrounding bast fibre bundles and so facilitating separation of fibre from the stem.

Now, describe the kinds of Retting are as follows:-

Explanation:

1. Water Retting - The most widely practised method of retting, water retting is performed by submerging bundles of stalks in water.

2. Dew Retting - This is common method in areas with limited water resources. It is most effective in climate with heavy night time dews and warm day time temperatures.

3. After Retting - The retted stalks, called straw, are dried in open air or by mechanical means and are frequently stored for a short period to allow "curing" to occur, facilitating fibre removed.
