In a strategic move to address long-standing vacancies, the Small Tea Estates Development Authority has appointed 25 tea inspectors and extension officers.

This decision comes at a time when the sentiment surrounding the tea industry is notably robust, reflected in an adjusted sentiment score of 96, indicating extreme optimism among stakeholders. The recent surge in coverage, which has reached 21, suggests heightened interest and engagement in the sector, potentially driven by ongoing market reforms and favorable climatic conditions for tea production.

As the authority bolsters its workforce, it aims to enhance productivity and quality control, which could further support the industry's growth trajectory in the coming quarters.
