Textiles & Jute Industry REPORT OF THE WORKING GROUP ON TEXTILES & JUTE INDUSTRY FOR THE ELEVENTH FIVE YEAR PLAN (2007-2012) GOVERNMENT OF INDIA MINISTRY OF TEXTILES P R E F A C E The textile industry, undoubtedly, one of the most important segments of the Indian economy is on the threshold of the exponential growth process. The factors like buoyant domestic economy, conducive policy environment and elimination of quotas in the international market are fueling its growth raising expectation of an unprecedented growth level. 2. Economic planning is an integral part of the development of any industry. The textile industry at this juncture needs an ‘approach’ which is based on ‘out of box thinking’ for addressing the issues which might hamper its growth. 3. The Working Group while drawing up its plan for the textile industry has critically examined the SWOT analysis of this industry; had extensive interactions with all the major segments of the industry to obtain their views and has taken into consideration the recommendations of the various industry specific Sub-Groups. 4. The strategy suggested to facilitate textile industry to grow at 16 percent in value terms and reach the level of US$ 115 billion by the terminal year of the Eleventh Plan interalia include – • Continuation of the schemes to consolidate and provide competitive edge to our inherent strength in wide and diverse raw material base of cotton, man-made, silk, wool and jute. • Facilitate the modernisation and technological upgradation of the different segments of the industry to make it internationally competitive. • Address the problem of infrastructure bottlenecks by suggesting continuation of the textile specific infrastructure schemes. • To suggest schemes / policies for meeting the demand / supply gap in the critical inputs like textile machinery and human resources which have the capacity to hamper the growth of the industry. • Labour law reforms to attract investment in large size units. • Liberalise procedures to attract Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in specific areas of textile industry needing FDI to bridge the gap between domestic investment and required investment. • Brand promotion and support for quality design to increase the value addition of the industry. 5. The decade 2006-2015 is the decade of manufacturing for India. The National Manufacturing Competitive Council (NMCC) has emphasized on the need for focused attention to the specified sectors of the manufacturing which are labour intensive and also enjoy competitive advantage. The textile and clothing industry is identified as one such sector. The Working Group has suggested a plan of action including higher plan outlay to enable this industry to realize its full potential during this Plan period. 6. The implementation of the strategies proposed in this report would unleash the investment to the extent of Rs.1,50,600 crore and lead to speedy development of the textiles and jute sector resulting in achieving the desired objectives and targets.

ABSTRACT This thesis examines Shanghai’s urbanisation by applying Henri Lefebvre’s theories of the production of space and everyday life. A review of Lefebvre’s theories indicates that each mode of production produces its own space. Capitalism is perpetuated by producing new space and commodifying everyday life. Applying Lefebvre’s regressive-progressive method as a methodological framework, this thesis periodises Shanghai’s history to the ‘semi-feudal, semi-colonial era’, ‘socialist reform era’ and ‘post-socialist reform era’. The Shanghai World Exposition 2010 was chosen as a case study to exemplify how urbanisation shaped urban experience. Empirical data was collected through semi-structured interviews. This thesis argues that Shanghai developed a ‘state-led/-participation mode of production’.

  • Subunit: 1.1 Introduction to Sericulture: Scope of Sericulture; Origin and History of Sericulture Industry in India and Other Countries
    SUBUNIT: 1.1 INTRODUCTION TO SERICULTURE: SCOPE OF SERICULTURE; ORIGIN AND HISTORY OF SERICULTURE INDUSTRY IN INDIA AND OTHER COUNTRIES. THE SILK ROUTE. 1 Introduction The word Sericulture is derived from Greek word ‘sericos’ meaning silk and ‘culture’ meaning rearing. It includes mulberry cultivation to produce leaf and silkworm rearing for the production of silk. Sericulture is an agro based industry, involving the raising of food plants for silkworm, rearing of silkworm for production of cocoons, reeling and spinning of cocoons for production of yarn etc., for value added benefits such as processing and weaving. Sericulture which includes the scientific method of raising the food plants, production of silkworm eggs, conservation and rearing of silkworm, culminating with the production and disposal of silk cocoons, is labour intensive, export oriented, employment creating an income generating agro based cottage industry providing quick returns in shorter duration and does not involve utilization of sophisticated machinery. The silk is the direct economy and product of sericulture activity. Besides, the utility of cocoons practically nothing gets waste in sericulture, the bi- products such as mulberry shoots serve as firewood and fuel, the left over leaves and excreta as cattle feed, manure and in the production of biogas, reeled out pupae and used male moths as poultry feed and in manufacturing of certain medicines and amino acids, mulberry roots and barks in preparing antihypertension drug etc. Sericulture is a cottage industry par excellence and is one of the most intensive sectors of the Indian economy combining both agriculture and industry, which provides far means of livelihood to a large section of the population i.e., mulberry cultivator, co-operative rearer, silkworm seed producer, farmer cum rearer, reeler, twister, weaver, hand spinners of silkwaste, traders, etc., and is the only cash crop in agriculture sector that gives returns within thirty days.

Physical properties include single-fibre critical load, compression and bending modules, which greatly affect the fabric physiological comfort. The fibres are tested using a ‘fibre axial compression-bending analyzer’. The behavior mechanisms of single-needle fibre are also analyzed, evaluated, and explained using fibres critical load, fineness, and protruding length. Physical and neuro-physiological basis for prickle sensation force from single-needle fibre depends on its bending modulus and axial compressive behavior. This experimental work shows that the bending modulus of ramie, jute, and wool fibre is significantly high as compared to other fibres. Thus, high prickle values of ramie, jute and wool fibres make them more uncomfortable due to the cross-section parameters and bending modulus of the single fibre needle. It is observed that the prickle feeling comes from the axial-compressive behavior and the number of effective fibre needles protruding from worn fabric surface.

Due to some problems and growth of modern technology, the market share of jute has decreased. In this paper, the effect of Woolenization of jute fibre was described. It also shows how the physical and chemical properties of jute have been changed by alkali-treatment as well as its structure. It was demonstrated that this kind of treatment leads to several changes in its structure which has turned to a near wool structure. These works are done by different concentrations of different alkalis. Finally, 15% NaOH treatment of jute show maximum woolenized properties where we obtain softened and swollen jute. Conclusively, we have made some other products from woolenized jute fibres such that if introduced into our world market, it can increase the market share of jute fibre. Keywords: Jute, Woolenization, Alkali-treatment, NaOH Introduction Jute is a golden fibre in our country. Recently, its demand has reduced and it cannot be utilized properly in the world. Hence, the golden fibre has deteriorated into zero fibre.
