An Overview of Sustainable Kauna Grass Products for Eco friendly Environment!
Mostly found in the wetlands of Imphal, Cyperaceae, commonly known as Kauna grass, acts as the raw material for weaving local Eco friendly baskets. Usually, the Kauna grass is cultivated along with paddy and once they grow to a height of around 6 feet, they are cut at their full length. The drying process is quite lengthy as they need to be completely dried before weaving to prevent mould. Often, the baskets are sold in their natural colour and at times, are dyed in various bright hues. The inner portion of the grass has a soft and spongy texture. A spongier texture will produce a better quality product. Other products made from Kauna grass are bags, boxes, Kauna baskets, mats, shoes, and so on.
