Spring tea harvest at Youth Volunteer Team 5

(Baonghean.vn) -In recent days, people in the Youth Establishment Village of the 5th Youth Volunteer Corps have been rushing to harvest the spring tea crop. This is the second tea crop this year, thanks to favorable weather, high tea productivity, and record prices, tea growers are extremely excited.

Most of the people in the production teams of the Youth Village of the 5th Youth Volunteer Team used tea cutting machines to exploit tea.

After cutting, the tea is packed into sacks and brought to the factory.

Coming to the Youth Village of the 5th Youth Union these days, the atmosphere of the spring tea harvest is busier than ever. People from 3 production teams are simultaneously harvesting tea. Currently, most people have used machines to cut tea, so the quantity of harvested tea has increased.

The three production teams of the Youth Volunteer Force 5 have about 150 hectares of tea that are 7 to 10 years old, and the people have newly planted more than 70 hectares. Thanks to the application of science and technology in planting, caring for and exploiting, the fresh tea productivity of the Team has continuously increased. In the past year, the tea productivity of all three production teams reached more than 20 tons/ha/year.

Youth Volunteer Force 5 has production team number 3 located quite far from the processing plant, so after mining they have to put it on motorbikes, tractors or cars to take it to the factory.

Workers of the 5th Youth Union Tea Processing Factory put firewood into the kiln to dry fresh tea.

Thanks to that, tea growers are excited...
