Question

how is jute made from jute plant

Answer 1

HEYAA FOLK,



✌ Your answer is given below. ✌


Jute is extracted from the bark of the white jute plant (Corchorus capsularis) and to a lesser extent from tossa jute (C. olitorius). It is a natural fibre with golden and silky shine and hence called the Golden Fibre.

How it is harvested???

To extract fine fibers from jute plant, a small stalk is harvested for pre-retting. Usually, this small stalk is brought before 2 weeks of harvesting time. If the fiber can easily be removed from the Jute hurd or core, then the crop is ready for harvesting.




hope it helps you!!!

Answer 2

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.
