Tea can be termed as
Organic if it is grown without the use of synthetic pesticides,
fertilizers and any other chemical compounds. The soil is instead
enriched with natural elements like compost and mulch which helps the
soil retain the moisture while providing extra nutrients as it breaks
down. Organic tea is also better for the farmer as it protects them
from exposure to potentially hazardous chemicals. Tea plants can live
more than 100 years, and organic farming methods allow the tea plants
to remain healthy for the duration of their lifespan. This ensures
that the farmer has minimal expenses in replacing them.
All types of tea
including green tea, black tea, or herbal tea -- can be grown
organically. Flavoured teas (like lemon-tulsi green tea) can be
certified as organic tea if their flavouring additives are also grown
organically.
Organic tea is,
better for the environment, since it's grown without the use of
synthetic pesticides, herbicides, fertilizers or other potentially
hazardous compounds. And a growing number of tea lovers are going
organic and enjoying the richer & fuller taste of organic tea.
