Jute is one of the most important traditional crops in Bangladesh and is widely known as the golden fiber. Every year farmers cultivate jute during the warm and rainy season. The plants grow quickly in the fertile soil and after a few months they are harvested. The cut plants are then bundled and soaked in water for several days in a process called retting. After that, farmers carefully separate the fiber from the stems, wash it in clean water, and dry it under the sun. Once the fiber is fully dried, it is tied into bundles and taken to local markets where traders purchase the jute.
