Abstract
Organic cultivation of tea has already started in India. Darjeeling tea has an edge in international and domestic markets. A study was undertaken to compare the traditional and organic cultivation in Darjeeling region in 21 gardens. Yield reduction was 10 to 21.2% during conversion period. In medium and low yielding gardens there was a reduction of upto 29%. However, the quality parameters were quite better with higher price realization.
