recently, I visited many tea markets in the provincial capital. The tea merchants reflected the influence of the weather, and the maturity of spring tea was obviously postponed for about 15 days this year. According to insiders, if the main tea producing areas in the south are not warming up later this month, the price of spring tea will continue to rise.
"now the labor cost is too high, a tea worker's salary of about 150 yuan a day, the increase of rent, transportation fee, machine wastage and so on, also push up the price of tea, this year the price increase of tea will be about 15%." Ding Weiying, general manager of Ji'nan Ying He Green Tea Co., Ltd., told the author.
Cai Fei, Deputy Secretary General of Ji'nan Tea Culture Association, told the author that this year's spring tea production is mainly affected by extreme weather, such as low temperature and drought, especially low temperature, which directly postponed the time of germination and picking time of new tea tree buds. He warned that, at present, some bad tea merchants should be beware of the sale of new tea and Chen Chachan. "The color of the new tea is green and green, the color of the soup is yellow and green and bright, and the Chen tea is dry and dry, and the color of the soup becomes obscure." The new tea smells fresh and fresh, while the old tea is light.
