CONSUMPTION AND EXPORT OF TEA IN INDIA
Abstract
India is the largest producer and consumer of tea in the world, accounts about 29 per cent of world production. In the global trade, Indian production contribution is about 30 per Gent and 23 per cent of China, respectively. This is because of high domestic consumption share of tea in these countries. The production trade in India since 1981 to 2000, the export of Indian tea in 1981 was highest as 241.25 million kgs and lowest in 1996 as 161.71 million kgs. Export of Indian tea is declined from 241.25 million kgs in 1981 to 201.00 million kgs in 2000. It is due to disintegration of Soviet Union, the export of Indian tea was badly affected. Domestic demand for tea for internal consumption has increased faster than that of production and it happens due to growing population and increase in habits of tea drinking. It is also recorded that during 1998-99 the country received Rs. 1006.87 crores from export of value added tea product. It means the export of value-added tea can earn maximum foreign exchange.
... The economic importance of the tea industry is manifold for the tea producing countries. The industry provides a vital source of export earnings for tea exporting countries (Wijeratne, 1996;Majumder et al., 2012;Pajankar and Thakare, 2009;Wachira and Kamunya, 2005;Ganewatta et al., 2005;Dang and Lantican, 2011;Mwaura and Muku, 2007;Sivaram, 2000;Alkan et al., 2009). A large proportion of these nations' populations rely on the tea industry for employment (Wijeratne, 1996;Majumder et al., 2012;Pajankar and Thakare, 2009;Wachira and Kamunya, 2005;Ganewatta et al., 2004;Dang and Lantican, 2011;Mwaura and Muku, 2007;Sivaram, 2000;Alkan et al., 2009). ...

Apart from the economic benefits for the producers, tea plantations also deliver other important ecosystem services such as carbon sequestration, soil fertility protection and water conservation (Xue et al., 2013;Li et al., 2011). ...
The global production and consumption of tea has been steadily increasing over the past decades. The tea industry has become a significant contributor to the economies of producing countries such as Kenya, Sri Lanka, India and China. Apart from its economic importance, the environmental and social importance of tea production has been recognised in the literature. However the industry is confronted by a number of challenges. These challenges include resource constraints, competition for land, unavailability of adequate labour, and climate change, as is noted in this article. All of the major tea producing countries have identified climate change as being a major challenge. Therefore, identification of the appropriate methods for modelling tea prices by incorporating a group of interacting time series variables such as price, production and weather variables to explain the dynamic relationships among these time series is important for producers. This article reviews and examines the approaches used to model tea price. In particular, various time series techniques are reviewed. The analysis clearly shows that quite a number of studies have been done on tea pricing. We found that VAR techniques have the ability to model the non-structural relationship of tea price alongside other time series variables which are endogenous and exogenous in nature. This paper also contributes to the existing literature by summarising the research undertaken on tea pricing to date.
... In 2001, the tea export was 12.93 million kilograms which declined to 0.68 million kilograms in 2021 [13]. Internal demand for tea consumption increases faster than production due to the growing population and the increase in tea-drinking habits led to a decline in exports [16]. However, the emergence of the tea industry in Bangladesh is a long story. ...
As globalization and economic development accelerate, Chinese tea has emerged as an essential export commodity in the international market. China boasts abundant tea resources, which have significantly promoted economic growth through tea exports. This study analyses the relevant literature and the prevailing state of China’s tea export trade. Using statistical data on tea exports and empirical research methodologies, this investigation examines the key determinants influencing the high-quality development of China’s tea export sector. The research integrates relevant frontier theories from management science and engineering to propose tailored recommendations. The study reveals that while the industry has demonstrated robust economic growth, it is confronted with challenges such as the need for enhanced brand visibility and adherence to international quality benchmarks. The research findings highlight the positive influence of the "Belt and Road" initiative on the tea export trade, which advocates for strategic international collaboration. This study concludes with policy recommendations that underscore the importance of bolstering the international dissemination of Chinese tea culture, standardizing export practices, and fostering global cooperation to augment the industry’s high-quality development trajectory. The findings aim to enhance the export capabilities of Chinese tea and foster the robust growth of the tea export industry.
Dental caries is a major global concern and source of great trouble worldwide. It is one of the most common chronic oral diseases in the world that affects both adults and children. The prevalence of DMFT index as a diagnostic criterion in the estimation of dental caries in the age group of 3–18 years was found to be 57%, whereas in patients aged above 18 years, it was much higher that is 77%.
Many studies have been carried out all over the world to find the cause behind it, and the main cause, which was well accepted by the people, was the action of pathogenic bacterial microflora such as ( in the oral cavity on the tooth surfaces. These bacteria strongly adhere to the tooth surface and produce lactic acid after fermentation of sucrose and various carbohydrates, which is responsible for the cavitation in the teeth. Many experiments and efforts have been made to remove from the oral cavity, like antibiotics, oral drugs, and more, which are beneficial but have side effects after long-term use, such as vomiting, diarrhea, resistance, teeth staining, etc.
That's why search ended at tea which is becoming a popular beverage and a widely consumed drink these days that has anti-streptococcal properties with least of side effect.
India's tea usage changed over time from being a colonial export to a regular beverage. With over 29% of the global tea production, India is one of the world's biggest producers and consumers. In India, tea has long been closely linked to the medicinal herbs that have long been used for both therapeutic purposes and general well-being.
