<P> The jute fiber comes from the stem and ribbon ( outer skin ) of the jute plant . The fibers are first extracted by retting . The retting process consists of bundling jute stems together and immersing them in slow running water . There are two types of retting : stem and ribbon . After the retting process , stripping begins ; women and children usually do this job . In the stripping process , non-fibrous matter is scraped off , then the workers dig in and grab the fibers from within the jute stem . </P>
