Tea Crop Policy
|
Introduction
Tea manufacturing is a prominent industry in India. Like other crops, tea too is exposed to various natural and man-made perils. Tea Crop policy is specially designed for manufacturing, transit and growth of tea. The cover is divided into three sections covering not just the plucking and transporting of tea but also the storage and blending and packing. Right from the time the green leaf is plucked till it reached the distributors’/ wholesalers’ godowns, we take care of the unforeseen events that can affect your business.
