Farmers have begun to pick spring tea leaves on the day of \u201cLichun,\u201d or the Beginning of Spring, which is the first of the 24 solar terms on the Chinese lunar calendar, and falls on Feb. 4 this year, according to Chen Xiangqing, an executive of the tea plantation.
The harvest period of spring tea leaves at the tea plantation will last until the Qingming Festival, or Tomb-Sweeping Day, on April 4. It is estimated that the output of dried spring tea leaves of the tea plantation will reach 500 kilograms, and dried spring tea leaves will be priced at around 760 yuan ($105) per kilogram.<\/p>\n\n\n

“I’m a native of Bajiao township. I come to pick tea leaves here every day during the peak season of harvesting and can earn over 100 yuan a day,” said a woman surnamed Huang, who comes from a village near the tea plantation.
By inviting nearby villagers to pick tea leaves, the tea plantation helps villagers find jobs near their homes, contributing to rural revitalization.<\/p>\n\n\n

Workers have also been busy processing tea leaves at the tea plantation’s workshop. The tea processing involves various steps, such as withering, stir fixation, and rolling.
To increase the production of spring tea leaves and raise the farmers’ incomes, experts from the Guangxi South Subtropical Agricultural Science Research Institute offer technical guidance to tea farmers and firms.<\/p>\n\n\n
