Abstract:

Tea is considered as the most consumed drink in the world containing high antioxidant capacity. In this study, the volatile compounds, the phenolic content, catechins and caffeine including antioxidant activities of 22 Camellia sinensis var. assamica (Assam tea) cultivars were investigated. The volatile compounds were investigated by GC-MS. At least forty-five volatile compounds representing 94.99-99.65% of all cultivars were identified. Limonene, trans-linalool oxide, cis-linalool oxide, linalool, and furfural were detected as the major components among these cultivars. Varied ranges were fou

India is a co-habitation of different casts, socio-cultural, religious groups of people. It is also observed in Assam, the state in the North-East India. It should be noted that the state of Assam has a reputation worldwide in the field of tea production. Since the beginning of tea production in Assam in the 19th century, the Tea Community social group of Assam has been formed with a large number of people working hard in the tea gardens. In this way tea farmers living in Assam since 19th century have become an independent community with their own social and cultural characteristics. The Tea C

Plantations are most systematic system of the production in the agricultural sector. It is noted that the most organized industry in India is tea plantation industry. Moreover, the British colonial government gave a serious attention to development of this industry. It is an agro-based labour-intensive industry. The plantation of tea cultivation had begun by the British planters in Assam. Moreover, Assam covers approximately 51 percent of the total land devoted to tea plantation in India. Hence, Assam produces around 55 percent of the country’s total production of tea, which is considere

The tea plantations of Assam, which constitute the country’s 53.97 per cent tea area, 49 per cent tea worker population, and 52.04 per cent tea production, occupy an important place in the economy, culture and polity of the state. The onset of tea plantations during British colonial rule has not only changed the landscape of the upper Brahmaputra valley through green tea bushes being nourished by tea tribes from east-central India, but also evolved a distinct tea culture. Although formation of small tea growers has added a new dimension to the growth of tea industry of Assam in recent times, t

Abstract The state of Assam alone produces nearly 53 percent of the total tea production in India. Around one million workers are engaged in the tea industry in India. Tea – as a commercial product first cultivated and expanded by the British – is an outcome of the toil and struggle of the Adivasi workers or indigenous people of central and east India who were made to migrate to Assam under extremely brutal conditions, and they form one of the most oppressed communities in the state. This section of the population has been waging struggles to protect its rights in the state. Tea production is

Abstract:

Aim: To study the carbon sequestration process in tea based plantation system and to identify more potential carbon sequestration system amongst the tea based cropping system by studying carbon storage in different components of the plantation system. Methodology: The experiment was carried out in the Experimental Garden for Plantation Crops of Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat, Assam. Treatments were made in an on going, long term shade experiment on mature tea bushes, adapted to three levels of shades viz. tea as monoculture; Tea based cropping system with Areca palm and Tea with Albizzi

Abstract:

Assam tea (Camellia sinensis) has been traditionally consumed for its medicinal properties, but its therapeutic potential remains understudied. This comprehensive review elucidates the phytochemical composition, biochemical mechanisms, and potential health benefits of Assam tea. Our analysis reveals that Assam tea’s rich bioactive compounds; including catechins, the aflavins, and quercetin, contribute to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, and neuroprotective effects. Moderate consumption (2-3 cups/day) may reduce cardiovascular disease risk, cognitive decline, and cancer incidenc

Abstract:

Five black tea types, Assam, Darjeeling, Earl Grey, English Breakfast and Oolong were tested for their chlorophyll, carotenoid, flavonoid, total phenolic content and essential oil content. English Breakfast had the highest chlorophyll content (834 mg/kg) and Earl Grey, the highest carotenoid content (360 mg/kg). Total phenolic content was the highest in Darjeeling (an average of 40,874 mg/kg ), while flavonoids, specifically, reached the highest concentrations in Oolong (498 mg/kg). Total essential oils were maximum in Assam tea blend (4,600 mg/kg). Tea pH values ranged between 6.13-6.66. Bang

India is one of the largest contributors of Tea (Camellia sinensis) throughout the globe. This is solely due to the suitable agroclimatic conditions perfect for growth of the plant especially overthe NER (North Eastern Region) of India having appropriate humidity, soil fertility and hilly terrain. The land suitable for tea cultivation is limited and its productivity needs to be increased in order to meet the ever-increasing domestic and international demand for this non-alcoholic beverage.

Abstract:

Tea Tourism is emerging as a new form of niche tourism in India, especially in the northeastern part of the country. A serene landscape in tea gardens is perhaps the most exotic and innovative way to enjoy nature. Tea tourism is emerging as a new type of sustainable cultural tourism where less research has been done. This study attempts to evaluate the prospects of tea gardens and their related products to attract inbound and domestic tourists in Assam, the largest tea-producing state of India. Problems of tea tourism in the study area are also discussed here and necessary suggestions have bee

Assam, a state brimming with diverse tourism opportunities, boasts rich wildlife, cultural heritage, monuments, and abundant natural flora and fauna. Despite its vast potential, Assam has yet to secure a prominent position on the global tourism map. While recent government initiatives aim to rejuvenate the state's tourism, one overlooked sector is Agritourism, a facet of Community-based Tourism that allows visitors to engage directly with the host community. This study specifically delves into the agricultural realm, focusing on Assam's tea sector, a pivotal contributor to the state's economy

Climatic factors significantly impact Assam tea production. The tropical climate of Assam, characterized by high precipitation and temperatures up to 36°C during the monsoon, creates ideal conditions for tea cultivation, contributing to the region's unique malty flavor. Here, in this study an attempt has been made to bring a comparison among statistical and machine learning models in prediction of tea production and evaluate an optimal model among them. A time span of last 23 years data were collected from Biswanath College of Agriculture under Assam Agriculture University situated at Biswanat
