Kenaf is a plant in the Malvaceae family that is grown for its fiber. It is an annual or biennial herb that can grow up to 3.5 meters tall. Kenaf fiber is found in the bast (bark) and core (wood) of the stem. Kenaf is used to make products such as rope, twine, cloth, paper, animal bedding, insulation, and composites. It is grown in many countries for these purposes. Kenaf seeds also yield an edible oil high in omega fatty acids that can be used for food or fuel.
