The on farm survey conducted in 1988-89 crop season in 8 jute growing Upazilas of Tangail district revealed that jute production practices has changed with growing demand of HYV seeds. Planting has shifted to infertile lower lands. Besides jute, other minor fibre crops namely mesta, kenaf and sunnhemp were grown in the study location. Low market price of jute and high cost of cultivation were considered as the major constraints of jute production. The higher cost of cultivation was further increased by the shortage of agricultural labour in kharif season. The withdrawal of subsidy for fertilizer and insecticides was also considered to contribute in higher cost of jute cultivation.
