Frost Hits Tea Arrivals in Coonoor Auctions

Frost Hits Tea Arrivals in Coonoor Auctions

Frost in the Nilgris region is making it harder to get tea for the auctions in Coonoor.

This means there's less tea to sell, and some types of tea are more expensive or cheaper.

Traders are worried because Iran, which buys a lot of Indian tea, might have problems that could make things even harder.

The auction had a lot of tea to sell, but some types sold for more money, and some sold for less.

It's all because of the cold weather and other problems far away.
