INDUSTRY OUTLOOK
India Ranks First in Jute production in the world. The Jute industry occupies an important place in the national economy of India. In India, Jute is mainly grown in Odisha, West Bengal, Assam, Tripura, Meghalaya, and Andhra Pradesh. There are about 170 jute mills in India, of which West Bengal has 60 jute mills. The Jute Industry of India is a labour-intensive industry and provides employment to around 4 lakhs workers in India. Moreover, Jute is the 2nd most abundant natural fibre in the world. Jute is used for handicrafts, carpet backings, curtains, sandals, carry bags, furniture, insulation, ropes, gunny bags, and many more.
The weather condition for the growth of raw jute crop in the season of FY 2021 is expected to deteriorate compared to the previous season and with carrying forward stock from the previous year due to lockdown of 100 days, going forward prices of raw jute is likely to be balancing with an upward bias compared to the previous year.
During the present operating cycle, the demand for ‘B’ Twill bags from the Government Procurement Agencies continued to be decent, in fact, Jute Industry could not fulfil the demand on several occasions as per the delivery schedule mainly because of bunching of orders by the Procurement Agencies and lower capacity utilisation resulting from shortage of manpower.
The Demand for ‘B’ Twill bags from the Government Agencies for packaging of food grains is estimated to be strong consequently there is an opportunity for the Jute Industry to enhance the production as much as possible & fulfil the demand.
With the signing of triparti agreement, minimum wages have increased significantly from Rs. 257 to Rs. 370 per day. Due to the introduction of an attendance allowance, the hike in wages is likely to help in the better availability of the workforce in the coming year.
