| Description |
A study of vegetative phase, yield components, and general quality of a variety of bast fibre crops indicates that under similar conditions these crops show differences in growth and quality parameters. Knowledge of these differences may be useful in proper selection, breeding, and improvement of any fibre crop and may also help in selecting a particular fibre crop to suit a multiple cropping programme. Some newer fibre crops have been described which may prove useful as a source of fibre outside the jute belt. Admixture of suitable bast fibres with jute may be experimented to meet the shortfall in raw jute for the industry.
