The project will lead to the commercial acceptability of jute geo-textiles for use in soil erosion control and rural road construction in Bangladesh and India.
The results will lend themselves to be extrapolated to conditions in other potential market countries.
The project will develop material specifications, field installation protocols and design methodologies for applications in compliance with
requirements and standards set by end users.
Objective and Scope
Objectives
This project will lead to substantial expansion of the market uptake of jute geo-textiles for use in soil erosion control and road construction in
commercially competitive markets.
Economic Impact : GDP growth, additional Foreign Exchange earning through export of JGTs.
