History of Sisal
Sisal
is a plant originally from Yucatan, Mexico. It is called 'sosquil' and
'green gold'. It is the coarest vegetable "hard" fibre. In the
1890's, sisal was introduced to East Africa as a crop suitable for extreme
hot and dry conditions. The majority of the sisal production now takes
place in Tanzania.
After a difficult start, production prospered
and by the 1960's Tanzania production alone totalled some 230,000 tonnes.
Today Brazil is the major World producer of sisal at some 125,000 tonnes.
Other countries involved in sisal production include Kenya, Mexico and
Haiti.
