In terms of textile, the first thing that come up to most of the peoples' minds are the fashion industry. Indeed, more and more textile has been created to satisfied the need of fashion. Nevertheless, we couldn't ignore those basic textiles which can fulfil our daily life. They are in agriculture and fishing industry. In the past, scarecrow was used so as to scare the birds and prevent them eating the crops. However, it is not an effective way, scarecrow is not good enough to protect the crops from all sorts of harm. Now, we have bird control netting to keep a distant between the birds and the crops, landscape fabric for weed control and soil stabilisation, frost protection blankets to raise temperature and provide a perfect environment for all different types of crop in different weather. New types of textiles have given us a better condition to improve our food quality.

For fishing, we no longer use tridents to fish, we use fishing net instead. Fishing net is more efficient due to the fact that it can capture hundred of fish at one. In ancient times, Aboriginal fishermen using nettles or the inner bark of cedar to create their own net. Owning to the technology has been improved, more and more textiles have been invented, so we can choose polyester net or nylon net for fishing. New types of textile no only giving us more choices to choose from, but also enhance our living quality.
