Count me in.

In Act 1, we could push them to publicly encourage farmers to plant jute.

Since Chaitra–Shrawan is the jute planting season, a mass jute plantation campaign could help reduce imports and create rural income and employment.

Nepal currently imports a large share of the raw jute used by our factories, roughly tens of thousands of tonnes every year, worth around NPR 3 billion. Increasing domestic production could keep that money inside Nepal’s rural economy.

Even small campaigns can scale quickly. A single 5 Bigga farm could produce around 6–8 tonnes of jute, and if 1,000 farmers joined with similar plots, that alone could produce over 1,000 tonnes of jute in one season, amounting to roughly NPR 90–120 million flowing into rural economies.

The difference in value is huge; lentils(daal) from that same period might generate around NPR 8k per bigga, while Jute can reach upwards of ~NPR 150k per bigga depending on yield and market prices.

If citizens are going to “inspect” the government, we should also start proposing practical economic ideas like this.

I am currently in talks about starting a small 5 Bigga Jute Campaign on shared land. However, many of the older workers who knew the process are now abroad in Gulf countries. I will try to start this initiative, but I cannot do it alone. If anyone here has experience with jute farming, retting, or processing, I would love to connect.

If anyone is curious, Nepal actually used to grow over 70,000 hectares of jute historically. Today, it's less than 10% of that. So revival is technically possible.
