Small growers to be the big players in ‘specialty tea’ in Assam

Small growers to be the big players in ‘specialty tea’ in Assam

The limited specialty tea produced by the big gardens may be etching new records at the auction, but for the specialty tea sector to sustain in the state, the role of the small growers would be vital, along with a strong need for government intervention in the form of R&D through its various wings, market linkage and marketing exposure for the small growers and developing a business model.
