The Ministry of Textiles and Jute proposed 12 revival projects worth Tk 2,320 crore for the jute sector in Bangladesh. These projects aim to double export earnings by 2031 and increase the share of value-added jute products from 45 percent to 70 percent. The government plans to complete the projects by June 2030, funded entirely by the state.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The initiative seeks to address a decline in jute and jute goods export earnings, which fell nearly 24 percent between FY2020-21 and FY2025-26. By increasing local raw jute production and reducing dependence on imported seeds, the plan aims to stabilize and grow the sector's economic output.
