Chemical composition of different pipeline varieties of jute (Corchorus capsularis and C. olitorius) fibres has been studied. The promising varieties which have been taken were C-718, C-2005, C- 2193, C-2035 and OM-1 and experiment was carried out to know their moisture content (%), cellulose content (%), hemicellulose content (%), lignin content (%), ash content (%) and fat content (%) in three different parts of plant- top, middle and bottom. Moisture content was found highest (12.6855 %) in bottom part of C-2035 variety and lowest (8.24 %) in top part of C-2005 variety. In bottom part of C-718, cellulose content was found lowest (58.24 %) and highest was found in the top part of C-2035 variety. Hemicellulose was found highest (23.73 %) in top part of OM-1 and lowest (16.39 %) in middle part of C-718. In case of lignin content, it was observed that 17.98 % was found in bottom part of C-718 which seem to be highest and lowest (13.61 %) was found in top part of C-2193 variety. In the top and bottom part of C-2005, ash content was found lowest (0.112 %) and highest (0.995 %) respectively. Fat content was highest (2.172 %) in OM-1 variety and lowest (1.099 %) in C-2193.
