💨 Abstract

India's tea production in 2024 declined by 7.8% to 1284.78 million kg, primarily due to reduced output in Assam, the country's top-producing state. The production drop in Assam was attributed to heatwaves and floods during the peak harvesting season. The production shortfall led to a significant increase in average tea prices, which rose nearly 18% to 198.76
