Jute Industry Seeks Relief at June 3 Meeting Amid Supply Crunch

Imagine jute, a plant used to make bags, is getting tricky to find.

The people who make the bags are worried because the price of jute is going up.

A meeting is happening in June to try and fix this.

They're hoping the government will help by releasing some stored-up jute and stopping people from hoarding it, which makes things worse.

The meeting is important because the supply of jute is lower than it should be.

Farmers in jute growing regions are delaying sowing crops.

Factories are having trouble getting jute and some may have to close soon.
