The first involves disagreements on matters of grading, which could be resolved through combined government and trade association action. The other problem concerns actions that should be taken further to develop and stabilize the industry: (1) to grow more kenaf that produce high quality fibre; (2) to increase production per rai; (3) to expand and make more efficient to present gunnysack industry.
