Current Thrust areas
The main focus is on maintaining a healthy balance between supply
and demand for meeting the domestic demand in full and maintain
current level of Exports
Thrust Areas:
1. Increasing Production & Productivity through
Replanting
and extension Planting.
2. Special focus on development of small holdings
3. Quality Assurance through Certification, value addition
4. Market Promotion - domestic and international
5. Plantation Worker’s welfare
6. Integrated R & D - climate change- Pesticide Residue issues
7. Regulatory measures for safeguarding the quality image of
Indian teas

Challenges
• Stagnant Productivity
• Increasing Labour Costs- shortage & absenteeism
• Adverse effect of climate change &increasing cost
of Pest Control
• Small Tea Growers- quality risks
• Quality related regulatory issues
• R&D – to keep pace with the new challenges
• Stagnant export –need for value addition, product
and market diversification
Stagnant Productivity
Declining yield - owing to aging of tea bushes .
crop and revenue loss during gestation period.
• A comprehensive survey of all big tea gardens
carried out
– 148305 ha 37% of the bushes are >50 years of
age
• It is targeted to renovate 47,000 ha during XII Plan
period ending 2017
Labour related issues
Increasing Labour cost, shortage and
absenteeism
• Tie up with IITs for development of mechanical
aids for improving the working efficiency &
reduce drudgery.
• Tea Industry continues to bear the social cost
rendering Indian teas uncompetitive in the
international markets.
COST OF PRODUCTION
• 70% of CoP comprises of Fixed Costs
• Price realization at the farm gate level is not keeping pace
with inflationary rise in the cost of inputs
• High Social Welfare cost
• High cost would be
improvement of yields.
largely

through
Adverse effect of climate change &
increasing cost of Pest Control
Prolonged droughts, incessant pest attacks adversely
impacting productivity and cost of production
• Cost effective pest management, harmonization of
Pesticide residue issues
• A Pesticide Code has been developed and notified.
It will come into force with effect from 1st
Septemebr 2014
• Launched a Sustainability Tea programme
“trustea” for ensuring quality assurance and
compliance with food safety standards
SUSTAINABILITY ISSUES
• Rainwater Harvesting
• Recharging Groundwater
• Effluent & Waste Management
• Afforestation & Micro-Climate Management
• Utilisation of Renewable Energy resources
• Safe Use of Pesticides & Adoption of Sustainable Field
Practices –
• Trustea Code
• Plant Protection Code (Version-2 in Tea Board website)
PLANT PROTECTION CODE
• The Tea Board of India has implemented a 'Plant Protection
Code' (PPC) for tea production.
• The PPC is a best practice guide to sustainable and safe tea
production.
• PPC covers :
o Use of only approved Plant Protection Formulations (PPFs)
by Central Insecticide Board, GoI
o Adherence to MRLs for pesticides laid down by the FSSAI
SUSTAINABILITY - INITIATIVES
Ground water recharging
RAIN WATE COLLECTION

Afforestation
Rain Water Harvesting Reservoir
Small Tea Growers- development
Mushrooming of small holdings and Bought Leaf Factories (BLF)
Green leaf price volatility –reasonable price not being realised due
to indifferent quality
• A New Directorate with adequate manpower set up in April 2013.
• Opened field offices for closer interface with the growers and BLFs.
• Enumeration of growers- smart cards
• Better extension services for adopting GAP & GMPs
• Improvement of quality & value addition
• Price Sharing formula-for ensuring reasonable price for green leaf
Quality related regulatory issues
•Thrust on compliance with GMP and
quality certifications such as ISO
22000/HACCP etc
•e-auction – Online auction of tea - moving
towards Pan India auction
•Tea Councils of India for Mandatory
checking of tea exports & imports – to
ensure compliance with the FSSAI norms
R&D–to keep pace with the new challenges
• TRIs have initiated work on
– the impact, vulnerability and adaptation of tea to
climate change.
– Irrigation, water harvesting and conservation
– Mechanisation especially for harvesting
– Non pesticidal control of pests /Organic tea
– Biotechnological studies for identifying potent
genes responsible for tolerance to drought and pest
attacks.
Stagnant export markets
Need for Value addition ,product & market diversification
• “Brand India” promotion in targeted markets
• 1.Extensive promotion of India Tea
– 2. Engagement with the local trading community
– 3. Consumer-oriented promotion
– 4. Utilisation of Social Media
– 5.Focus on export of value-added teas
• Promotion of Indian tea brands having 100% India tea
packed and exported from India.
• Setting up of Specialty Tea Factories/value additionpackaging/blending/tea bagging
• Setting up of Integrated Tea Parks for common
MARKETING : DOMESTIC
• Domestic consumption is lagging at 733 gms per capita –
lower than many countries like UK, Ireland, Pakistan, etc
• Domestic promotion is needed to attract Youth & Young
Professionals with high disposable income and aspirational
life style
• Industry & Tea Board jointly conducting B2C promotion
