HRD FOR JUTE MILL SECTOR
(TRAINING FOR WORKERS’ AND SUPERVISORS’)
1.0 PREFACE
One of the most important asset or resources of every organization is its human resource. It is now globally
recognised that managing human resources is one of the basic jobs of management. Once recruited, the Human
Resource Department helps a new recruit to become a productive and satisfied employee by updating their
knowledge and improving their skill in both production and maintenance. Such help is also extended to the
existing employees who are reassigned to new jobs through promotions, transfers etc. and even for upgradation
of their skill.
Often they must be trained in the duties they are expected to do. Even an experienced employee when
reallocated on new jobs need training to improve his performance. Capabilities and job demands must be
balanced by orientation and training as shown in Fig. 1.

The Jute Industry is one of the most labour-intensive industries. The technology is old. During the last two
decades or so no major technological break through has taken place although new technologies are continuously
emerging in textiles.
Although it is felt that to encounter the challenges faced by the industry, a skilled and enlightened group of
workforce is essential. Sustainable HRD is therefore one of the prime needs of the jute industry. Such a
sustainable human development system will need to have the following elements:-
1.1 Activities
1.1.1 Development of Leadership and Organizational Commitment
Every organization needs effective leaders. In fact bosses are replaced by leaders since leadership role is
invaluable in the contemporary organizations having knowledgeable technocrats and workers.
1.1.2 Career Planning and Development
No human resource development can be acceptable to the people of any organization, if it fails to provide
opportunities for individual employees to have bright career prospects.
1.1.3 Performance Appraisal
Performance appraisal is an indispensable aspect of HRD, which enables the management to understand where
their people stand, what is expected of them, what they actually do, where they lack and how can they be
updated.
1.1.4 An Adequate Reward System
Each individual offers his services to an organization primarily for a compensation to satisfy his needs.
1.1.5 Effective Counselling
Counselling, which includes career counselling, motivation counselling and technical counseling for trouble-
shooting, facilitates career planning.
1.1.6 Effective Grievance Handling
Effective and timely grievance handling is a part of every HRD System since no effort for human resource
development can bear real fruit without timely grievance handling.
1.1.7 Well Formulated Human Resource Information System
All necessary information about all employees and executives of the Company backed by a data bank must be
included in such a system.
1.1.8 Management Development ; Technical Development ;
Supervisory Development & Organizational Development
Developing managers to effectively handle organizational resources including human resource and activities is
the need of every organization, particularly in the context of rapidly changing business environment. It must be
followed by technological and technical development. For updating the technology, modernisation of the plant and
automation there is need for appropriate people for which human development programmes are required. The
actual operation takes place at the supervisory level and hence supervisory development is the crux of HRD.
Developing the workforce must also be associated with supervisory development, and hence workforce
development is always a part of supervisory development programme.
1.2 Effect of HRD
A Company’s training and development pays dividends to the employee and the organization as suggested
below:
• Improves the job knowledge and skills at all levels of the organization.
• Improves the morale of the workforce.
• Improves relationship between boss and subordinates.
• Aids in organizational development.
• Aids in carrying out organizational policies.
• Provides information for future needs in all areas of the organization.
• Aids in increasing productivity and/or quality of work.
• Helps to keep costs down in many areas e.g. production, personnel, administration, etc.
• Reduces outside consulting costs by utilising competent internal consulting.
• Helps employees adjust to change.
• Leads to improved profitability and/or more positive attitudes towards profit orientation.
In general any human resource development programme must enable the Company’s work force to acquire and
sharpen their capabilities to perform well on their respective jobs, develop and stimulate their potentialities and
enable them to contribute fully to develop an organizational culture of team spirit, cordial relationship, human
values and togetherness of the management and its people.
2.0 OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT
The Jute Technology Mission under Mini Mission IV has a scheme for training of workers and supervisors with an
outlay of Rs. 4 crores to be spent over a period of 5 years. The Scheme will be implemented by IJT and JMDC
will oversee its implementation.
The Objectives of the project :
i) To conduct training programmes for the following level of Jute Mill personnel on various aspects of jute
processing:
1. Workers/Operators for various types of machines used in Jute Mills

2. Junior Supervisors of all departments
3. Maintenance Personnel like Mechanics/Sardars
4. Senior Supervisors
ii) To develop training manuals for each of the various categories of personnel employed in the jute mills.
iii) To set up a Training-cum- Dissemination Centre at IJT with a Pilot Plant and necessary Teaching Aids.
iv) To conduct Seminars/Lectures on Special subjects for Technical Personnel

2.1 ACTIVITIES TO ACHIEVE THE OBJECTIVES
A. i. Selection of 9 Training Centres at Jute Mills in different locations .

ii. Selection of Resource Persons
iii. Infrastructure development at Centres.
B. i. Preparation of Training Modules and durations

ii. Preparation of Study Materials and publication of Manuals and preparation of video films.
iii. Preparation of Training Schedules.
C. i. Construction of a Training-cum-Dissemination Centre

ii. Setting up of a new Pilot Plant with modern Jute processing machines
iii. Setting up of latest Teaching Aids in the new Training-cum-Dissemination Centre with 50 sitting
capacity.
D. Upgradation of existing Conference Room suitable for 150 participants with modern Audio-Visual
arrangements.
2.2 COMPONENTS OF THE PROJECT
2.2.1 Training Centres
The Institute intends to have ten (10) training centers. Each training centre should cater to the needs of at least 5-
6 mills. Few workers/ supervisors from these mills including the workers/supervisors of the centre will participate
in the training programme at the training centres. The location of the training centres will be decided in
consultation with I.J.M.A.and other mills. The training centres must be situated in one of the mill premises and that
particular mill should allow all the participants from different mills to use their production line for training purposes.
Although the Institute of Jute Technology is having Laboratories for training Jute Mill personnel on conventional
Jute processing system, is lacking in demonstrating certain modern and new technology processing techniques.
Various techniques have already been developed through different R&D work for producing diversified and quality
jute products using modern machines/techniques but very little has been disseminated to the Industry. Being the
only HRD Institution for Jute Technology, IJT is dedicated to spread such knowledge amongst the technologists.
This dissemination is effective through practical demonstration, CD films and discussion on such developments.
The proposed Training-cum-Dissemination Centre will not only help during this programme but will help in future
also.

This dissemination is effective through practical demonstration, CD films and discussion on such developments.
The proposed Training-cum-Dissemination Centre will not only help during this programme but will help in future
also.
2.2.2 Manpower Requirement
The training will be imparted by the Resource - Persons under the supervision of the Institute of Jute Technology.
The faculty members of Institute of Jute Technology will be given responsibility of the proposed centres. The
resource person will be the faculty of IJT and few more resource persons will be selected. The resource persons
along with faculty-members of the Institute of Jute Technology will initially work together for three months to chalk
out the detailed programme for conducting the training at the proposed centres for the four different Modules.
They will simultaneously prepare the training materials and aids. The number of resource persons required will be
around 20.
2.2.3 Infrastructure for Training Centres
Each training centre should be provided with the following major equipments for training purposes.
(1) One 21” Colour Television

(2) One CD/ DVD Player
(3) One Overhead Projector

(4) One Screen
(5) One Erasable White Board/ Black Board
(6) Table & Chair for 40 participants.
2.2.4 Training for existing workforce
The training programmes will be organized at the shop-floor level for sardars/ workers, junior and middle level
supervisors and refresher course for managers and executives. The training modules for the sardars/workers will
be restricted only to a particular production machine whereas the other training programmes and refresher
courses will cover the overall syllabus of production including bleaching, dyeing and printing processes,
maintenance, quality control, cost consciousness and awareness for eco-friendly products. The training
programmes may broadly be classified in the following four Modules.
Module – I Workers (Operators)

Module – II for Junior Supervisors
Module – III for Maintenance Personnel
Module – IV for Senior Supervisors
The details of the Modules are shown subsequently. Though the number of days and the participants are being
restricted to make the programme short, meaningful and fruitful to the mills, the duration of the courses may be
increased, if required. In some cases it would also be necessary to have tailor-made courses to meet the
requirement of a particular mill.
2.2.4 Preparation of Study Material
The Institute will be preparing the study material for each unit operation of a production line, aspects of quality
control, aspects of maintenance and aspects of auditing through OHP transparencies, training charts, brief
manual for each topic in different languages. For workers and sardars it will be done in English, Bengali and Hindi
and for other category of staff-members, it will be made in English and Bengali. Apart from the above, the video
CD’s will also be prepared covering different machines of production stages in jute industry (approx. no. 15).
These video films for each stage of production including modern technology and technical textiles with geo
textiles production will be prepared by professionals.
2.2.6 Training Schedule & Duration
The duration of these training programmes will be for five years with an annual evaluation system. The training
programmes as mentioned in the Modules will be conducted on a continuous basis at various centres so that
about 16,000 workforce can be trained. The Institute proposes to launch the project by conducting the training
programmes for the workers as in Module –I. In the case of junior supervisors or senior supervisors, they should
be given chance to participate in all the training courses of that particular Module. Proposed Modules are given
later. Details of total numbers of modules, programmes and participants are given at the end.
2.2.7. Submission of Reports
As mentioned earlier an annual evaluation will take place after submission of progress report annually. Final
project report will be submitted within three months after completion of the project.
2.3 Planning, Monitoring, Evaluation & Reporting :
2.3.1 Planning & Monitoring :
A Planning and Monitoring Committee comprising following members will evaluate and monitor the scheme:

2.3.3 Evaluation :
An evaluation team will be prepared in consultation with the Planning and Monitoring Committee. To ascertain
and to evaluate the impact of the training the following steps will be taken :
1) An Evaluation Questionnaire will be prepared for each category of module by the resource persons and
the faculty-members.
2) The same Evaluation Questionnaire will be supplied to each participant after the completion of the
module.
3) Questionnaire duly filled will be evaluated at the training centre itself and will be informed about
participants’ achievement drawbacks, and scope for further improvement.
4) Participants will be provided with a free Training Manual for future reference.
5) Participants will be issued a Training Attendance Certificate.
Participants have to go back to the mills and implement the acquired knowledge in their day-to-day working. After
three months, an Evaluation Team along with representatives from the management will evaluate the
development of the staff. The participating mills shall send the feed back to IJT on the improvement in the
performance of the workers and supervisors after 6 months.
2.3.4 Role of the participating mills :
Ten centres will be chosen in consultation with Planning and Monitoring Committee. Each centre will cater to the
needs of 4-5 mills. Selected mills must provide a class room with tables, chairs, blackboard along with a
coordinator and supporting staff. Institute will inform all the mills to send workers / supervisors to that particular
centre. The mill where the centre will be established should give in writing their willingness to host workers and
supervisors of other mills. The mills after receiving invitation from IJT for this type of training must write to IJT
regarding their willingness to send workers/ supervisors for training.
2.3.5 Reporting :
Progress regarding physical activities and financial utilization will be reported half yearly to Jute Manufactures
Development Council (JMDC) / National Jute Board (NJB) and Project Management Committee.

3.0 SOME IMPORTANT EMERGING AREAS FOR TRAINING
UNDER MODULE V & VI FOR SENIOR TECHNOLOGISTS

3.1. Maintenance
This particularly vital aspect is largely ignored by the mills in general. Some mills reported to have adequate
maintenance staff and follow coherent and systematic maintenance programmes.. Maintenance is generally
restricted to breakdown maintenance i.e. a machine is attended to when there is a sudden breakdown. In reality
there is no systematic follow-up for preventive maintenance. Lack of adequate number of maintenance workers
who can form maintenance squads under an in-charge with specified responsibilities is also discernible in certain
cases. In addition, maintenance supervisors/in-charge on many occasions, were found not to be familiar with life
of spares and other qualitative aspects which normally is desirable from a technologist. Non availability of suitable
spares in time also comes as a hindrance in certain other cases.
Maintenance must get top priority if the condition of mills working with age-old machinery has to be improved. A
programme has to be charted out, advance planning to be made and rigorous follow-up action to be taken with
adequate earnestness to get satisfactory improvement.
3.2 Technical Auditing
Only some mills have patchy ideas on machine and energy auditing. How these audit systems can help in
maintaining the machinery in proper condition and for minimising energy consumption and thereby ultimately
reduce the cost is not clear to most of the existing technologists in jute sector. Practical shop-floor training seems
to be necessary in this direction.
3.3 Total Quality Control and Quality Assurance
This is another area where the mills are gravely lacking. Work carried out by the staff of the department appeared
to be largely perfunctory. What really is carried out is routine testing of the products from different stages of
processing which, strictly speaking, is not quality control but only quality testing. Minimizing the recurrence of
generation of defective items is largely absent. To implement an effective total quality control programme,
technical knowledge to track down the causes of generation of defective material and their removal is either
wanting or not seriously put into practice. The use of statistical techniques in achieving and maintenance of
perfect quality and its improvement should be seriously implemented through effective process control measures.
Management tool to assure product quality, minimise rejection risk and effect cost reduction are of prime concern
today.

Moreover, testing procedures are not standardised in many cases and the persons conducting the tests do not
have adequate knowledge in carrying out the testing as per the procedure laid down by the different standard
Institutions. Moreover, even in very good mills, technicians are not often able to interpret the test results
particularly from sophisticated instruments such as Uster Spectrogram. Such data are now often demanded by
the foreign buyers.
To improve the situation as outlined above, technologists with adequate knowledge of statistical techniques
applicable on the shopfloor level in jute mills appear to be best suited for the purpose. Such person should also
be trained for in and out of different standard testing methods.
3.4 Concept of Eco-friendliness
Many of the technicians are aware about the adverse effect of hydro-carbon based batching oils which have been
restricted in many countries for specific products. The Research Institute like IJIRA has come out with suitable
substitute based on vegetable oil. But a true eco-friendly item should not only be biodegradable but should also
be free from any toxic item, often referred to as a red listed product. Such products should not be used in many of
the stages of manufacturing including packaging. It is therefore necessary to explain the importance of the current
market demand for eco-friendly jute products both at the supervisory and worker levels. Morever, the technicians
must be familiar with the banned items and their substitutes.
3.5 Concept of Technical Textiles
In the present context, knowledge about technical textiles from jute is considered to be vital for all Mill Technical
Personnel. The idea of using jute Geo-textiles is growing very fast and R & D work is in progress. Therefore, the
knowledge about jute technical textiles, its specifications along with application is a very vital area for jute mill
technologists.
The industry needs suitable multi tier training programmes for the upgradation of knowledge of junior and middle
level supervisors in relevant areas and workers’ training on relevant skill development and changing of attitude
towards their work and behaviour. The top management should also sincerely rise to the need of the present day
situation in the industry and change their approach towards the managing of mills in view of change in the global
scenario.
3.6 Financial Aspects :
The finance for the Project will be provided by Jute Manufactures Development Council (JMDC). IJT will submit
the requisition for the necessary release of funds as and when required along with Utilisation Certificate of the
previous funds released. IJT will submit audited statement annually at the end of each financial year.

MINI-MISSION IV
OPERATING MANUAL
2. Machinery Development

6.2
SCHEME ON JUTE MACHINERY DEVELOPMENT
1. INTRODUCTION
Government of India has approved the Jute Technology Mission (JTM) for overall development of the jute sector
in the country. Under Mini Mission IV, a Scheme for Machinery Development has been earmarked for technology
upgradation in the jute industry. For the development of new technology and high yielding machinery, it is felt
necessary on one hand to establish a Machinery Development Centre and on the other, to engage some
international / national experts / institutions in this development process. Machinery development shall be taken
up with the machinery manufacturers who have both credibility and the required infrastructure. The development
work will be carried out in collaboration with and under the guidance of technical experts.
2. NEED FOR MACHINERY DEVELOPMENT
In the last 50 years, no comprehensive or sweeping technological development has taken place in the jute
industry due to the lack of interest by indigenous and foreign machinery manufacturers. Lack of infrastructure and
coordinated efforts meant that the machinery development was fragmented and not successful in
commercialization.
As recognised by most studies and organisations, modernisation can only take place in the jute industry by
development and adoption of new generation machinery. Jute needs to be processed at a technological level,
equivalent to that used by other fibres, for its survival against the competition from its competing countries and
competing alternative fibres. New machinery would accomplish any or all of the following goals:
• Process greater volumes.

• Process faster
• Process to higher standards
• Consume less power
• Be cheaper and easy to maintain
Therefore, the imperatives for modernisation of the jute industry are:
a) Installation of high productive new generation machinery for producing yarns and fabrics of improved
quality at competitive costs; and
b) Introduction of electronic retrofits in these machines for effective quality control and / or continuous
monitoring.
The drivers for the modernisation process are:
• Cost reduction by increase of machine productivity and improvement of product quality.

• To modernise and improve most of the stages of processing of jute products.
• The machines developed will have to be commercialised and the jute industry should come forward to
procure those in sizeable quantities to ensure sufficient demand.
2. ROUTES FOR MACHINERY DEVELOPMENT
JTM envisages the two different elements in this scheme:
• Machinery Development by setting up of a Centre for Jute Machinery Development (CJMD) – fund for
setting up of the Centre, working capital for development of machines in the Centre and expenditure for
running the Centre.
• Individually Sponsored Machinery Development & Commercialisation Projects (ISMDCP) – fund involved in
individual projects of machinery development through private machinery manufacturers.
The machinery development will be carried out through Public Private Partnership (PPP) route. The Public Private
Partnership will ensure that the:
• The Private stake holders invest only in the projects having prospects of commercial viability.
• The Government participation would ensure that deliverables of Research & Development of Machinery
would be available to the industry as a whole and not only to the participating beneficiary.

3. MACHINERY TO BE DEVELOPED
The Project Management Committee for Mini-mission – III & IV in its 1st meeting held on 30.08.2006 finalised the
list of the new technology machinery to be developed for the jute sector. The list showing the process sequences,
requirement of machinery for such processes and additional machines for export quality products to be developed
under the Mission is enclosed at Annexure – D. The CJMD will undertake to develop at least the machinery
enlisted at Sl. 1 to 5 of the said list. Other machines can be developed by the CJMD or any other private machine
manufacturer, after getting approval by the Technical Committee.
The Project Management Committee for Mini-mission – III & IV will from time to time review the list of machinery
and suggest addition to, modification of or deletion from the list, during the course of development of the new
technology machines.
4. CENTRE FOR JUTE MACHINERY DEVELOPMENT (CJMD)
a. The Centre for Jute Machinery Development (CJMD), will be an independent legal entity, preferably a
Company under the Companies Act, 1956, owned by the Private Partner.
b. The Private Partner, a commercial machine manufacturer, will be selected through a three stage techno-
financial bidding process. The Terms of Reference for the bid, the bid process and their evaluation process
will be administered by a Technical Committee set up under the scheme. The details of composition and
functioning of this Technical Committee are outlined in point 9 below.
c. Expressions of Interest (EOI) will be invited from Private Partners (PP) for establishment of the Centre for
Jute Machinery Development (CJMD). The bidder securing highest aggregate score in technical and financial
bid will be selected to run the CJMD.
d. The TOR will include the eligibility criteria, basic credentials, scope of the PP to have tie-up with jute mill (s)
for testing of the developed machines under mill conditions, etc.
e. The PP will provide land and building, owned by the PP, for setting up of the CJMD.
f. The PP will bid for a percentage of the cost of machinery / equipment for establishment of the CJMD in its
financial bid. Higher percentage of the cost of machinery / equipment borne by the bidder will entitle higher
score in the financial bid.
g. The Government of India, through JMDC / National Jute Board will provide the remaining cost of machinery /
equipment for establishment of the CJMD, which will serve as a Tool Room & Training Centres for Jute
Machinery Development in line with the similar scheme under the Ministry of Small Scale Industries,
Government of India.
h. The CJMD will be managed by its Board of Directors with representation from the Government, the PP and
Industry. The Government will be represented in the Board by not less than two Directors, who would have
the power to exercise affirmative vote on specific issues as detailed in the Articles of Association.
i. Development of each machine will be considered a separate ‘Project’.
j. Working Capital for the machinery development will be provided out of JTM funding and will be shared by the
Government of India (through JMDC / National Jute Board) and the PP on 75:25 basis.
k. The funds will be kept in Escrow Accounts – separately for each machine to be developed by the CJMD.
l. After successful development of a prototype, successful commercial production of the machine by the PP in
their own workshop or through any other manufacturer will be considered as the completion of a “Project”.
m. On completion of each of the development projects, an evaluation will be made by a Technical Committee to
ascertain the success or failure of the project.
n. In case of failure of a single project, the working capital funded out of JTM will be considered as grant under
the principles of technology gap funding.
o. In case of successful development of a machine, the PP will commercialise the developed machine either in
its own workshop or through any other manufacturer and recover the development cost from the sale of the
machinery by loading the development cost as follows:
(i) From the international customers (Bangladesh, etc.), at the highest rate.
(ii) From domestic jute mill sector, at a rate lower than the recovery rate imposed on the international
customers.
(iii) From the decentralized small & medium scale sector at a further lower or nil rate.
p. Such recovery will first mitigate the working capital contribution of the PP under the project and thereafter the
working capital contribution by the Government. The surplus thereafter will be utilized to mitigate the working
capital contribution of the other projects, which could not be completed with successful development, in the
same pattern.
q. After the entire working capital contribution of the PP and the Government is recovered, recovery of royalties
from the machine manufacturer can be fixed, if deemed necessary and feasible.

r. After the recovery of the entire working capital contribution, the Tool Room (machinery equipments, etc.) will
be put to tender to facilitate recovery of the Government investment on machinery / equipments. The PP will
have the right to match the highest bid. The proceeds will be allocated pro-rata according to the percentage of
contribution by the PP / Government.
s. Such recovered amount will form a Corpus in JMDC / National Jute Board for undertaking similar machinery
development projects.
For this model, a legal agreement will be executed between the JMDC / Jute Board and the private partner of the
CJMD by engaging a transaction counsel. Such arrangement will enable world-class development to take place
for the jute industry, the infrastructure for which is currently not available in the public or private domain.
The presence of optimal infrastructure and know-how in the CJMD will ensure proper development of the
machinery prototypes at the optimum and most economic cost. The involvement of private partners will ensure
that this will be followed by successful commercialisation. The PPP mode will also guarantee that technology
developed will provide a comprehensive solution to the entire industry.
6. INDIVIDUALLY SPONSORED MACHINERY DEVELOPMENT AND COMMERCIALISATION

PROJECTS (ISMDCP)
JMDC will reserve right to develop not more than fifty per cent of machinery listed for development through private
machine manufacturer with or without the involvement of CJMD, provided that JMDC is not required to bear any
cost for development of infrastructure of the private machine manufacturer.
Offers from private machine manufacturer for development of any machinery enlisted under the scheme or their
technical variations will be considered from the 2nd year of the scheme, notwithstanding the fact that similar
machines are being / have been developed in CJMD.
The private machine manufacturer will be selected through the same process of selection of CJMD. The
Technical Committee will prepare the TOR, run bid, evaluate and recommend selection of the private machine
manufacturer. The Technical Committee will be responsible to examine and specify the notional cost of each of
the project. The private machine manufacturer’s percentage of contribution to the project will be considered as its
financial bid.
Apart from the enlisted processing machinery, in the areas where the integration of technology is not critical and
the application of the technology to the production process of Jute is simple, such as material handling systems,
humidification and other auxiliaries, individual projects may be taken up by the private machinery manufacturers.
For ISMDC projects, to be executed outside the CJMD, Government share of the cost of developing each
prototype machine will be met from the JTM allocation. The private partner interested in the development project
will make such contribution as defined in their bid. Eminent machine manufacturers in India and abroad may apply
for such machinery development projects in the proforma prescribed at Annexure-C.
In these sectors the need of technology development will be sponsored through Individually Sponsored
Machinery Development and Commercialisation Projects (ISMDCP) under viability gap funding
approach. In case of successful completion of a project and development of a machine, recovery of
Govt. contribution through royalties from the machine manufacturer will be fixed. This approach will
ensure that the cost of research, development and commercialisation of machines is kept to a minimum
through minimal resource consumption.
7. MODE OF FUNCTIONING & MANAGEMENT
The CJMD will be a company under the Companies Act, 1956. It will be managed by its Board of Directors. The
Government, through JMDC, will be eligible to nominate at least two Directors, who would have the power to
exercise affirmative vote. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Articles of Association of the Company, all
meetings of the Board shall not be valid unless at least one Government nominated Director is present in the
meeting either by himself or through his Alternate. All matters shall be approved by the Board only by a majority
including at least one affirmative vote of the Government nominated Director for matters so specified in the
Articles of Association.
The CJMD will also have the option, with the prior approval of its Board including the affirmative votes of the
Government’s nominated Directors, of leasing out its facilities to private developers under ISMDP.

In case of the Individual Sponsored Machinery Development & Commercialisation Projects, the private machine
manufacturer will carry out the developmental work, which will be reviewed by the Technical Committee
comprising representatives from the Government, R&D institutions and the private partner. On the successful
completion of the project and or commercial production of machines, any royalty earned on the developed
machine will be enjoyed by the private partner.
8. SELECTION OF PRIVATE PARTNER

MINI-MISSION IV
OPERATING MANUAL
1. Design and Development of JDP

7.1
SCHEME FOR DESIGN &
DEVELOPMENT OF JUTE DIVERSIFIED PRODUCTS [ JDPS ]
Part A
Introduction:
The scheme may be named the Scheme for Design & Development of Jute Diversified Products [ JDPs ].
Changed global scenario, increasing competition, short life span for products, greater availability of
quality products have brought a tremendous change in the market. In this scenario, design up-gradation
is a critical component for product innovation as well as for product standardization. Strategic design
intervention is the need of the hour.
This scheme is basically, to take care of a wide gamut of activities including market driven research on
development of new products, improvement of design and quality of existing products, institutional
support [assistance for design & technical development], training to weavers, supply of equipment, bench
mark survey for the existing available skill & designs and new upcoming trends etc. It seeks to reap the
benefits of such development in an integrated and coordinated manner both at macro and micro levels
over a period of 5 years, leading to overall growth of the jute sector.
Justification:
Jute must be made acceptable and more user friendly through design innovation. It can capture the
consumers’ imagination for newer products, which will ultimately create opportunities for gainful
employment, leading to more income generating avenues. An integrated approach towards Design &
Development in diversified jute products is essential. This should be followed not only for the domestic
market but also for the global market as well.
Objective :
¾ Market impact analysis including survey to determine the design needs of each region and market.
¾ To assimilate the traditional skill of the specific region in new product development so that the
artisans / craft persons do not feel alienated from the activity and to develop a regional identity to
new designs and product development.
¾ To understand region specific jute resources and skill available and then provide hands on skill
development training for wider range of product with better market coverage.
¾ To provide infrastructure support for production and marketing.
¾ To ensure availability of infrastructure and common facilities which would enable development of new
and improve products.
¾ To sensitize the artisans and craft persons about the design need and requirements of the market.
¾ Human Resource Development by handholding approach.
¾ The diversity of uses will increase demand for jute products. This will require more production units to
be set up thereby generating employment.
Methodology:
1. Need assessment survey of the market for jute diversified products in terms of design needs by
engaging marketing consultants / agency / institution as well as to identify new areas for application
with potential for growth.
2. Developing new designs as per feedback received from need assessment survey by reputed design

TO FIND ALTERNATIVES TO CONVENTIONAL JUTE BATCHING OIL FOR IMPROVING

SPINNABILITY AND TO PRODUCE NEW TOXIC AND HYDROCARBON FREE JUTE PRODUCTS
Justification
Jute Batching Oil (JBO) used in improving spinnability of jute fabrics suffers from presence toxic
ingredients and hydro-carbon. Rice Bran Oil (RBO) has been put to use of late as an improved substitute
of JBO. But RBO too has limitations. It is not capable of improving spinnability of all types of jute fibres
and poses processing difficulties. Hence, it is considered expedient to search for a oil that is not only
non-toxic and hydro-carbon free but also facilitates processing and improves spinnability of all types of
jute fibres.
Objectives
(a) To identify appropriate alternatives of conventional jute batching oil (JBO) by other vegetable
oil or polymer system with permissible hydrocarbon content without toxicity and odour forming
characteristics on jute products.
(b) To improve the spinnability for making of jute yarns using these alternatives of JBO.

JUTE GEOTEXTILES
Increase the durability of JGT by treating in a natural additives
Justification
Durability of JGT up to about 3 to 4 years is a technical necessity in order that soil can get consolidated to the
maximum without mechanical intervention. So long chemical additives like cupramonium, ‘Compsol’ (branded
product containing copper sulfate and aluminium hydroxide) have been in common use for enhancing its
durability. But such additives do not strictly conform to the environmental parameters. It is therefore
considered expedient to look for a natural additive that can add to the fabric durability to the desire extent
without impairing its physical properties.
Objectives
¾ To look for and primarily identify natural additive(s) that can enhance the durability of JGT without
affecting the physical properties.
¾ To undertake studies with each of the identified natural additives and make a comparative estimation
under varying soil ambience.
¾ To recommend the most advantageous processing system for treatment
¾ To study and monitor the durability of the treated JGT in fields under different soil ambience.

JGT with water repellant treatment for erosion control in river banks
Justification
Study of soil-JGT interaction is certainly important while looking for a suitable additive to enhance the
fabric-durability. But water-JGT interaction is no less critical when JGT is put to use for control of erosion
in river-banks and waterways. There is need to search for an eco-friendly additive that can be used to
coat JGT and prevent penetration of water into the fabric. So long bitumen has been in use for this
purpose. But bitumen-treatment renders the fabric rigid and adversely affects its drapability. Research on
finding a water-repellant additive that does not affect drapability and other physical features of JGT
deserves to be initiated as control of erosion in river-banks is an extremely important area and wields a
big domestic market.
Objectives
¾ To look for and primarily identify natural additives that inhibit penetration of water into JGT
¾ To undergone laboratory studies with each of the identified additives and make a comparative
evaluation.
¾ To recommend the most advantageous processing system for treatment
¾ To study and monitor the water-repellant characteristics of the treated JGT in fields under

Jute Based Paving Fabric to serve as a cheaper substitute of Bitumen Mastic
Justification
JGT as wearing course on roads has not been extensively tried so far. From the field trials so far
conducted, use of an appropriate JGT-combination prima facie appears to be effective. Paving fabric has
to be water-proof and abrasion-resistant. Considering the fact that jute and bitumen are thermally
compatible, it may be possible to design a suitable fabric that will serve as a cheaper substitute of
bitumen mastic now commonly used in urban roads. Such a fabric has a big domestic market.
Objectives
¾ To develop a paving fabric with suitable blends of woven and non-woven JGT that can resist
abrasion of moving loads in different degrees and can act as a water-proof barrier.
¾ To try in the laboratory each of the developed paving fabric under simulated conditions in
different types of roads (e.g. NHs SHs, Rural Roads)
¾ To evaluate for each of such fabrics in fields with different degrees of traffic intensity.

STANDARDISATION OF APPLICATION OF NATURAL DYES ON JUTE BASED TEXTILES TO

PRODUCE ECO-FRIENDLY JUTE DECORATIVE AND DIVERSIFIED PRODUCTS
Justification
Single and mixture of Natural dyes can produce uncommon and soothing shades. Most of the natural
dyes are usually non-toxic/ non-carcinogen and non allergic i.e. eco-friendly. However the common
drawbacks of natural dyes are its difficulties in reproducibility, non-uniform shade, poor to moderate
fastness , poor yield of colouring matters , non-availability of standard application methods and high costs
of extraction and dyeing via mordanting . Hence, there are ample scope of doing scientific study on
application of natural dyes for jute based textiles aimed at obtaining newer shade with acceptable colour
fastness properties.
The outcome of this project will lead to building expertise/ capability in guidance of research in the areas
of application of natural dyes on jute based textiles to help the user industry, which will in turn indirectly
promote the exports of eco-friendly jute decorative and diversified textiles dyed with natural dyes, from
India
Objectives
1. To undertake extensive research activities on characterization and extraction of natural dyes and
standardization of methodologies of application of natural dyes on jute substrate from natural fibres
to develop newer shades.
2. To study the chemistry of dyeing and dyeing kinetics of selective natural dyes to be applied on jute
based yarns and fabrics.
3. To improve the surface colour strength and colour fastness properties to wash, light and rubbing of
the jute products dyed with single and mixture of natural dyes.
4. To study the effects of chemical pre-treatments/modifications of jute based materials to improve the
affinity and colour fastness behaviour of selective natural dyes.
5. To Train Local Dyers for application of natural dyes on jute materials by providing regular training
and technical services on methods developed, to popularize the application of natural dyes
extracted from different bio-resource.

Jute Diversified Products

7.2
NATIONAL CENTRE FOR JUTE DIVERSIFICATION, KOLKATA
SCHEME FOR HELPING NGOS AND WOMEN SELF HELP GROUPS (WSHGS) FOR
DEVELOPMENT OF JUTE DIVERSIFIED PRODUCTS
1. INTRODUCTION
The Scheme may be called Assistance to NGOs and WSHGs for the Development of Jute Diversified
Products.
2. OBJECTIVE
The objective of the scheme is to create domestic demand for Jute Diversified Products through mass
awareness, to expand the production base for various JDPs by promoting NGOs and WSHGs especially
in rural areas to take up the manufacturing of JDPs by imparting skills, training, financial support for
procurement of machineries, raw material supply chain support, marketing support so as to ameliorate
the economic status of the rural women and bring them to the level of economic independence.
3. COMPONENTS OF THE SCHEME
In Jute Technology Mission –Part IV (2) scheme there are nine inter-related activities as summarized in
the Annexure–A. Component wise details of the above activities / schemes are given in the Annexures - I
to X
4. OPERATING AGENCY
NCJD / National Jute Board, Kolkata, will implement the above scheme in association with reputed
NGOs and WSHGs.
5. STRATEGY
This component of the Jute Technology Mission aims at promoting Jute Diversified Products (JDP) by
developing artisans preferably in clusters, micro entrepreneurs and self reliant community enterprises
(WSHGs & SHGs) on the principle of effective participation and mutual cooperation. The scheme has a
need-based integrated approach for sustainable development of JDP activities through participation of
artisans, weavers and budding entrepreneurs leading to their empowerment. The scheme shall be
implemented by NCJD /NJB in partnership with NGO’s and experts.
The scheme is devised as an integrated approach for sustainable development and promotion of
production base of JDPs under SHGs, and WHSGs, besides creating micro- enterprises. It envisages
five broad kinds of intervention which are inter-related and must be taken up in succession to achieve the
objectives -
A. Social Interventions
B. Technological Interventions
C. Financial Interventions
D. Marketing Interventions
E. Monitoring, Follow up and Concurrent Evaluation
I. Social Interventions: Diagnostic area survey and formulation of project plan and mobilization of
artisans, weavers and budding entrepreneurs so as to enable systematic development of Community
enterprises through development of SHGs and WSHGs. This requires an in depth knowledge about the
area which may be acquired through reputed NGOs fully conversant with the area and its need. The
findings of the survey may call for creating awareness about the economic potential and prospects of
JDP activities that would help in mobilizing SHGs, WSHGs & budding entrepreneurs to take up JDP
activities as enterprises. However, identification of appropriate NGO shall play crucial in this regard and
needs careful selection.
Diagnostic area survey Æ Awareness Workshop Æ Development of SHGs & WSHGs

NCJD in association with reputed local NGO of repute would be involved for the activities related to
Social Interventions. Such NGO, if found suitable, may be associated to carry out the other technical,
marketing and financial interventions also.
II.Technological Interventions: Skill upgradation, development and supply/dissemination of new

designs and technical information, technological upgradation, supply of raw materials, setting up of
Common Facility Centre (CFC) etc are essential for the generation of new micro-enterprises.
SHGs, WSHGs and budding entrepreneurs Æ Basic & Advanced Training Æ Design
Dissemination Workshops Æ Quality Upgradation programmes Æ Establishment of Production
Unit Æ Market Linkages Æ Common Facility Centres
Base NGO already active in the location should, as far as possible, undertake all these interventions in
an integrated manner. Master Trainers and Designer for such interventions will be associated with NGO
within the budgetary allocation of the scheme. Such trainers and designers are to be engaged from the
empanelled list of NCJD or after prior approval from NCJD. If in the course of implementation it is found
that a selected NGO is unable to undertake such activities, the Committee shall select other suitable
NGO/s shall for the purpose.
III.Financial Interventions: The new generation of beneficiaries after acquiring necessary knowledge of
manufacturing JDPs with the inventions provided under JTM may need financial assistance for the
establishment of JDP units. Individual entrepreneurs or WSHGs developed during the process of various
interventions will be provided financial assistance for establishment of JDP units. If any NGO itself is
interested to set up its own production unit of JDP they may also be encouraged to do so for which
financial assistance will be provided. Financial assistance will be in the form of reimbursement of the cost

MARKETING SCHEMES
A. Market promotion schemes and campaigns for jute diversified products 2006-07 to 2010-11
In consonance with the growth of the JDP sector and the emergence of a varied range of products to
cater to different segments of the consumers, it has often been felt that a sustained and focused
promotional campaign for jute products has become imperative. The time has arrived for a concentrated
campaign to be launched and carried out on a long term basis. The campaign is to be executed jointly
along with the industry and will also focus on advertisement campaign in public media, sector product
promotion campaign, awareness campaign and brand promotion. A financial outlay of Rs. 800 lakhs over
a five year period has been provided in the Jute Technology Mission.
In keeping with the policies enshrined in the National Jute Policy, 2005 the scheme aims to increase the
consumption of JDPs by 20% during the JTM period as well as boost the sale of jute goods by 50%
globally.
The key products earmarked for promotion are Food Grade Jute Products(FGJP), Geo Textiles(after
completion of the standardization process), Home textiles like fabrics, floor coverings, curtains, cushion
covers and upholstery, Consumer and lifestyle products like shopping/carry bags, jewellery, footwear,
stationery, moulded jute products, handicrafts including wall hangings and gift articles.
Objectives of the scheme :
Market development due to acceptance of jute products in various segments of the domestic and
international markets constitute the background for the activities outlined in the Jute Technology Mission.
In order to achieve the objective as given in the National Jute Policy 2005, an integrated approach is
envisaged and conceptualized with emphasis on following key elements:
a) Development of Market Information
b) Product development by sponsoring research
c) Standardization
d) Creating awareness of the market and products through seminars and workshops
e) Development of entrepreneurs by providing escort services and providing various marketing
platforms, viz promotion by participation in trade shows, fairs in National and International levels,
organization of Jute Fairs at State/district and village levels.
f) Providing avenues for market testing and feedback on the product
g) Brand promotion of a product
Details of the scheme:
The scheme provides for undertaking both domestic and international activities.
Specifically as per financial outlay and number of physical activities outlined in the Jute Technology
Mission document in annexure A (page 107B), the following activities have been envisaged:
1) Development of Market Information:
The key to penetrating any market is information about the market size of the product, its competitors, the
extent of the market share of its competitors and the advantage the specific jute product has over its
competitors. Secondary information will need to be sourced by appointing an agency for collection,

collation and analysis of the information retrieved from various sectors. This will help in formulating
strategies for penetration into the targeted markets. The physical activity and financial outlay are given as
below:
2006-07 2007-08 2008-09 2009-10 2010-11

Beneficiaries: The primary beneficiaries will be small and medium entrepreneurs of jute diversified
products based all over India who will establish vital business links thus, gaining foothold from exposure
to such markets. The jute mills who will be supplying the raw materials will also benefit.
Output: Strategies for campaigns envisaged under the scheme can be formulated and implemented for
the Jute diversified sector.
2) Participation in National level fairs/exhibitions:
This will enable the producers and entrepreneurs of the respective jute products to hone their product
quality and cater to the required segments. In continuation of the gradation process of producers of
JDPs being undertaken in the year 2006-07, on the basis of the National Survey of the Jute products,
participation in the national level fairs shall be only for those producers who have achieved certain
goodwill in the market on the basis of the quality of their products and sustenance of their customer base.

The main objective of the participation in the International Level Trade Fairs in India is to provide an
exposure of quality jute products to the visiting buyers, buying agencies and buying houses of deptt.
Stores based in US and European countries. The basic objectives are as below:
a) Since participation in foreign trade shows are expensive, it will enable the JDP manufacturer to test
market his products at an economical rate in India
b) Foreign buyers and buying house representatives visiting India can be invited to visit the units of the
JDP producers in India.
c) Changes in design and colour trends will be adapted early enough before the buyers return to their
countries.

4) Participation in International Fairs Abroad:
It has been observed from past experiences that European and American agents have captured the
markets for jute goods in South American and African countries. This has been the practice traditionally.
As a result, the Indian Jute Industry has become more and more dependent on middlemen in these two
continents. Further, due to non exposure of India jute goods in the South American and African countries,
the benefits of purchasing quality goods directly from the manufacturers have never been exploited.
The objective of this mission is to project the capabilities of the Indian jute goods’ quality and supply
parameters over its competitors thus expanding the market for Indian Jute goods to the purchasers in
Latin American, African and ASEAN countries.

OPERATING MANUAL
4. Scheme for Commercialisation of Technology

7.4
JMDC SCHEME FOR COMMERCIALISATION OF TECHNOLOGY
Short Title:
The scheme may be called Jute Manufactures Development Council (JMDC)/ National Jute Board (NJB)
‘Commercialisation of Technology’. and establishment of Venture Capital Fund.
Background:
In furtherance to the earlier programmes under the UNDP assisted National Jute Programme 1992-97
and the Country Cooperation Framework-I Programme of the UNDP, the Jute Technology Mission aims
at a holistic change in the jute process and production as also in the manpower and market component of
the industry. One of the important in this direction is to bring in new technology in the jute diversified
sector to the door step of the Small and Middle level Entrepreneurs (SME) as well as the NGOs and
SHGs.
The role of venture capital to commercialise technology has proved to be beneficial to SMEs to carry out
significant innovations at pilot production level. With the important objective of encouraging Small and
Medium Enterprises (SMEs), it has been provided in National Jute Policy 2005 that JMDC should
establish a Venture Capital Fund (VCF) which may be used for commercialisation of technology for the
organized and the decentralised jute sectors.
Objective:
The object is to provide support for development and demonstration of new and improved technologies in
jute sector.
Commencement & Duration:
The scheme will come into effect on and from a date to be notified by Jute Manufactures Development
Council (JMDC) / National Jute Board (NJB) and shall remain valid until 2010-11. However, the tenure of
the scheme is subject to annual review by the Council of JMDC/NJB.
Under this scheme, it has been proposed that the research and developmental studies undertaken in the
scheme 7.1/ 6.2, on completion would be disseminated to the stakeholders for commercialization.
It was decided in the 5th Empowered Committee that the execution of the two schemes, viz., Scheme 6.2-
Machinery Development and Scheme 7.4 - Scheme for Commercialisation of Technology be clubbed
together, and the machines so developed may be commercialised through the CJMD.

JUTE PARK FOR THE DIVERSIFIED SECTOR
1. Objectives of the Scheme:
1.1 The "Scheme for Jute Parks for the Diversified Sector (JPDS)" will be launched in accordance with
the Guidelines of the Mini Mission - IV under the Jute Technology Mission (JTM) of the Ministry of
Textiles, Govt. of India.
1.2 The aim of the Scheme is to attract entrepreneurs / units investing in new small jute mills / spinning
mills / weaving units with a view to generate employment / upgrade technology to optimise exports
based on value addition. The Scheme aims at providing entrepreneurs in jute with support facilities
on the model followed in the Scheme for Integrated Textiles Park (SITP), which was launched by
merging the Scheme for Apparel Parks for Exports (APE) and the Textile Centre Infrastructure
Development Scheme (TCIDS) of the Ministry of Textiles, Govt. of India.
1.3 JPDS would create new jute parks at potential growth centres by 2010-11. This scheme for setting
up Jute Parks shall be implemented on Public Private Partnership (PPP) basis, as in
the case of SITP. It.envisages engaging of a professional agency for project execution.
1.4 Under the PPP mode the support under the scheme will be provided at 60:40 pattern
(Developer : Govt) as in the case of SITP scheme for all states. The funding for NE
region States may be increased to 10 : 90 pattern (Developer : Govt), if approved by the Govt. in
modified SITP Scheme.
1.5 The Scheme would be made operational through grants to be released by the designated jute related
body (JMDC/NCJD) authorized by the Ministry of Textiles. The JTM grant may be leveraged for
raising credit for the project from Financial Institutions.
1.6 An amount of Rs. 60 crore would be provided under the JTM for the development of Jute Parks (JP)
in a five-year period between 2006-07 and 2010-11. The number of entrepreneurs and the resultant
investments and employment in each JPDS could vary from project to project.
2 Scope of the Scheme:
2.1 The scheme targets industrial clusters / locations with high growth potential, which require strategic
interventions by way of providing world-class infrastructure support. The project cost will cover
common infrastructure and building for production / support facilities, depending on the needs of
the JP. There will be flexibility in setting up of JPs to suit the local requirements.
2.2 The Scheme proposes to provide a grant to each Jute Park through the State Governments/
Industrial Area Authority/Industrial Development Corporation any other Govt. body for setting /
upgrading infrastructural facilities in the earmarked area of the existing or new industrial area for
promoting small jute mills / jute diversified products.
2.3 The grant will be subject to an upper cap of Rs. 7.5 crores for setting up each Jute Park in all
States. The total available fund of Rs 60 crores under the Scheme will be disbursed in such a way
that the physical target of setting 10 parks is achieved.
2.4 A JP will have the following components:

a) Group A - Land
b) Group B - Common Infrastructure like compound wall, round the clock electric power supply,
construction of roads, effluent treatment plant, water supply, sanitation, sewerage and drainage
system, state-of-art telecommunication facilities, disposal systems, etc.
c) Group C -Buildings for common facilities like construction of exhibition / marketing hall and
warehouse facilities, yarn and fabric testing laboratories, wet processing facilities e.g. dyeing /
bleaching etc., jute yarn and fabric banks, training centre for skill upgradation, raw material

department, crèche, canteen, labour rest rooms, bank, offices of the Customs and Excise, sales
tax, offices of service providers, etc.
d) Group D - Factory buildings for production purposes.
e) Group E - Plant & machinery.
2.5 The items covered under each of the above Groups are illustrative only, and every JP may be
developed to suit the specific production and business requirements of members of JP.
2.6 The total Project Cost for the purpose of this Scheme includes the cost on account of components of
JP, as listed under Groups B, C and D above, provided the ownership of the factory buildings vests
with the SPV. Assistance under JTM (as outlined below) will carer Group B, C & D above, the
purpose of calculating the quantum of such assistance, expenditure on land i.e. Group-A will NOT be
considered.
2.7 The SPV will, however, have the option of seeking financial support from Government of India for
components under Groups B and C only, if factory buildings are individually owned.
3 Implementation Structure:
3.1 JMDC / NCJD would implement the Scheme through Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) in PPP
mode. Industry Associations/Groups would be the main promoters of the JPs. The SPVs shall have
operational autonomy so that they do not become surrogate Public Sector Enterprises or be
controlled by Central/State Governments. State Govts. are required to identify suitable plot of land
and prepare feasibility Reports and Detailed Project Reports. In the event that a State Govt. cannot
place a suitable Project Proposal including land with clear title and free of encumbrances, privately
promoted Jute Park through PPP mode can also be considered under the Jute Park Scheme.
3.2 JMDC/ NCJD shall sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Infrastructure Leasing &
Financial Services (IL&FS) or a similar professional agency, which has considerable experience and
expertise in the area of infrastructure development, as Project Consultants (PC) for implementing the

Financial Institutions, State and Central Government and JMDC / NCJD. SPV shall invariably be a
Corporate Body registered under the Companies Act..
3.7 These SPVs would be the focal points for implementation of the Scheme, playing the following role:

i) The SPV would conceptualize, formulate, achieve financial closure, implement and manage
the infrastructure.
ii) The SPV would procure land, cost of which could be built into the project cost.
iii) After developing the infrastructure, SPV would allocate sites to Industry for setting up units
