India's 2025 Tea Production and Exports Expected to Surpass 2024

India is making more tea this year and sending more of it to other countries.

Last year, India made about 1284.78 million kilograms of tea.

This year, by October, they had already made 1133.41 million kilograms, which is a little more than last year.

The tea industry thinks the total production for this year will be around 1342 million kilograms, which is about 38 million kilograms more than last year.

This increase is because they are picking tea leaves for a longer time this year.

Also, India is sending more tea to countries like Iran, Iraq, and China.

Last year, they sent 256.17 million kilograms of tea to other countries.

This year, by October, they had already sent 228.52 million kilograms, which is more than the same time last year.

The industry thinks they will send about 15-20 million kilograms more tea this year compared to last year.
