| Abstract/Description: | Ramie (Boehmeria nivea) is used commercially for fiber production. The fiber obtained from ramie plant is one of the strongest vegetable fiber known in the world today. It possesses highest strength and length, good durability and absorbency with excellent luster. These remarkable characters make it rather more suitable for use in the manufacture of wide variety of textiles and cordage products. However, despite its unique quality, ramie has received comparatively less prominence in the calendar of important crops of the world. Recently with the availability of more technical know how, the crop has started getting slightly more importance and the countries like China, Korea, India, Brazil and the Philippines have come forward with commercial cultivation with some or larger extent. |
