Question

Explain any three objectives of the ‘National Jute Policy, 2005’. 

Answer

In 2005, the Government formulated the National Jute Policy with the objective of increasing productivity, improving quality, ensuring good prices to jute farmers and enhancing the yield per hectare. The jute industry faced tough competition from synthetic substitutes and competitors such as Bangladesh and Brazil. The growing global concern for environment-friendly, biodegradable materials also led to the Government policy of mandatory use of jute packaging.
