Sampling

  • 5% or minimum one Bunch shall be randomly selected for sampling.

  • 1 kg shall be drawn from each selected Bunch and shall be mixed homogenously, called as primary sample.

  • 1 kg shall be drawn from primary sample called as Laboratory sample.

Note

  • Natural dust may be allowed in Range 3 to 5 with proportionate discount.

  • Root content will include hard barky croppy ends.

  • Scores on the table may be taken as guidance for determining the discount.

  • HUNA: Defects caused by non-removal of dried up base and hard bark from the fibers

Tolerance

Grade TD-5/ W-5 would be entangled or any other jute not suitable for any of the above grades but of commercial value. Natural dust may be allowed in grades TD3 to TD5 with proportionate discount. A parcel of jute which would not secure full marks for a particular grade shall still be considered for that grade with suitable discount to be settled between the buyer and seller, provided its score is not less, by 50 (or more) percent of the difference, between the maximum scores for that and the next lower grade. When the score is less by 50 (or more) percent of the difference, the buyer will have option to reject or settle with a suitable discount. Scores on the table may be taken as guidance for determining the discount.
