Batching: All the processes starting from batch selection up to carding of jute is called batching.

Objects of Batching

1. To help fibre move freely during processing
2. To get expected dampness and flexibility
3. To remove hardness and stiffness of jute fibres
4. To intermix the batch component effectively
5. To reduce loss due to wastage
6. To control and reduce yarn cost

Factors considered for batch selection

1. Cost of raw material
2. Availability and duration of stock jute
3. Physical properties and quality of jute fibres
4. Quality of yarn being spun
5. Cost of production
6. Machine used during processing
7. Demand of the customer
