Anyone any thoughts?

I don't have any specific experience with jute, but my usual advice with more raw/natural fibres is "use waterbased ink" 
It should soak in a little more, making it less likely to get cracked or scraped off if the printing surface is too uneven. The fabric would still need to be able to take the heat to cure it though.
I imagine you could print it as per normal and still get acceptable results (depending on what it's being used for), just maybe not perfect results. Trying a sample might be a good first step?
It also depends what kind of print we're talking about here. One colour black... great. Try it, see what happens. Multi-coloured with tight registration? Ehhh, not sounding so great.
