• Jute is gaining a lot of attention for the past
  few years due to rising concerns over
  environmental health.
• Mostly native to India and Bangladesh, jute
  requires at least 25 degrees Celsius and humid
  weather to thrive.
• The fiber obtained from it can then be spun into
  strong and thick durable threads.

• The woody composition of jute makes it last
  longer. So, what makes jute sustainable and
  eco-friendly? Lets find out!
• Jute is biodegradable and compostable. It takes
  approximately 1 to 2 years to biodegrade, hence
  doesnt harm the environment. Thus, disposing of
  jute doesnt come at the cost of environmental
  well-being.

6

• Jute can grow throughout the year and
  additionally it also reaches maturity quite
  quickly.
• This means it can be renewed easily making it
  economically efficient as we will need less land
  as compared to other fibers and crops.
• Ultimately, it decreases our need to disturb
  other habitats in the ecosystem.

7

• As stated above, jute is strong and durable. This
  makes jute products resilient to wear and tear.
• This is one of the reasons why jute tote bags, as
  well as other jute products, are hyped when it
  comes to reusable products.
• People are looking for jute products online as
  well as offline.

• In comparison to other crops, jute require less
  water and chemicals, like pesticides, to grow.
  Moreover, it grows majorly in tropical areas,
  therefore, is dependent on rainwater. Needless to
  say, this saves water consumption as well.
• Jute makes the soil more fertile for future
  crops, thus we can easily use the same land to
  grow not only jute but also other crops on the
  same land. Hence, as we rotate crops, the next
  batch of crops can benefit from more nutrients.

• This crop is also said to be able to absorb more
  carbon dioxide and release more oxygen than other
  trees and crops.
• Studies show that a hector of jute can release up
  to 11 tons of oxygen and absorb up to 15 tons of
  carbon dioxide during a jute season.

• Jute as a crop is capable to cater to most of the
  worlds needs.
• The wooden core of jute can serve as more
  sustainable wood and raw green jute can be the
  most efficient raw material to manufacture paper.
