Sri Lanka tea pilot
Sabaragamuwa
One of the growing regions where the PLANet-ZERO pilot is running with smallholders and bought-leaf factories.
About this region
- Low and mid-grown production in the south-west.
- Faster growth cycles than the high-grown districts.
- Dominated by smallholder plots rather than large estates.
- Shorter intervals between rounds of picking.
Where plots are small and rounds are frequent, small changes in timing repeat many times over a season.
