Huge jump in tea imports leaves Northeast small growers worried
The New Indian Express Sambalpur
|January 26, 2025
A massive jump in tea imports and Tea Board India's directive for early closure of tea production in North India has left over two lakh small tea growers from the Northeast at their wit's end.
These growers, who contribute over 54 per cent of tea produced in the Northeast, petitioned PM Narendra Modi on Friday under the banner of North East Confederation Small Tea Growers' Association. They sought the Centre's help to save the 200-year-old Indian tea industry.
In a letter, the association said the board had directed the small tea growers to stop harvesting tea leaves from December 1, 2024 for overcoming demand-supply mismatch.
