This research work investigates to select the appropriate portion like top, middle, bottom for both Tossa and White jute for suitable applications such as reinforcement, blending yarn, and diversified jute products. The fundamental properties of Tossa and White such as bundle strength, fineness, breaking twist, and whiteness (%) were studied. It was observed that the maximum strength found at the bottom portion for both Tossa and White were 10.35 lbs/mg, 10.08 lbs/mg respectively. The results revealed the higher breaking twist and whiteness (%) at the middle portion for both Tossa and White jute were 42.65, 36.75, 42.5%, 39% respectively. The better fineness found that at the top portion of Tossa and White jute were 36.15, 31.05 respectively.
