Monday, May 24, 2021

YBO - Sectors, units, and localities in Yen Bai province have carried out many activities in response to the International Tea Day (May 21).

They have boosted communications to introduce the potential, advantages, development history, production, processing, and trading of tea in Yen Bai. The province’s policies encouraging tea production, trade promotion activities, and tea products of local businesses and cooperatives have also been promoted.

Messages have also been created to encourage local people to stay at home and drink tea as a measure to help contain COVID-19.

The provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Development asked for activities in response to the International Tea Day to be carried out in an appropriate manner that matches COVID-19 developments.

These activities will take place through May.

Yen Bai, home to about 8,000ha of tea, is one of the localities with the largest tea farming areas. Large-scale zones specialised in tea cultivation have taken shape here. The province’s agricultural restructuring plan also includes a plan to keep the tea farming area, mostly the "shan” tea specialty, stable – at 3,000ha.
