| Origin |
|
After
a lot of debate, there seems to be an agreement that White Jute originated in the
Indo-Burma region and Tossa Jute in Africa. Kenaf originated in Angola in Africa and
Roselle originated in Sudan of Africa (Singh, D.P. 1983). China is also considered as one
of the places of origin of Jute. According to some scholars, some provinces of the
southern parts of China are the secondary centres of origin of' Tossa and White Jute.
(Peikun Huang 1992). |
