Abstract

Cellulose fibres are extracted from the baobab tree (Adansonia digitata) by making a circumferential slit, 1 in.-2 in. deep, around the tree-trunk at a suitable height and hammering the surface of the tree in a downward direction, starting from the slit, thereby separating the fibres from the pith and causing them to peel away from the body of the tree. The process may be repeated for successive layers of fibre. The trees are not damaged by this process and subsequently produce new fibre layers to replace those lost. The fibres are baled after extraction but may be dried first.
