Success of the Ntingwe Tea Estate
(abndigital.com)
In 1987, the then provincial government carried out feasibility tests in Ntingwe to see how a tea plantation could improve economic conditions for deep rural communities. Back then, poverty was rife and un- employment at a staggering 70 percent. 20 years later, the Ntingwe tea plantation is now more than 400 hectares in size and can produce up to 480 tons of world class, quality tea. Most of the tea is enjoyed in Europe and America with some penetration into the local tea market. We're here to find out how this cup of tea is made.

Monday Night News: Tea production jumps 18.4% higher thanks to favorable weather conditions
Tea production jumped 18.4% higher in 2016 to hit an all-time high of 473 million Kgs on the back of favorable weather conditions and aggressive tea husband drive by key stakeholders. In 2015, 399 million Kgs of tea were recorded. The 2016 figure is still remarkably higher compared to other record outputs of 445 million Kgs in 2014 and 432 million Kgs in 2013. Tea productivity for year 2016 per hectare was more or less similar with the one for 2014 and 2013 at 2,300 Kgs of made tea. Out of the total production for 2016, the smallholder sub-sector output was 265.6 million kilos or 56% while the estate sub-sector was 207.4 million kilos about 44%. Owing to increased supply, Kenya tea auction prices declined significantly from an average of USD 2.98 per kg recorded in 2015 to 2.36 USD, meaning that returns for farmers were also affected.
