This paper provides a review on the machinability and mechanical properties of natural fibre reinforced composites. Effect of chemical treatment, operating parameters and coupling agents on machinability of natural fibre reinforced composites were discussed. In addition, the physical properties of the fibres on composite machinability were also mentioned. Effect of chemical treatment, fibre orientation, volume fraction on mechanical properties was described. The effect of physical properties of fibres on mechanical properties was also finally discussed.
