Aditya Seth Saab: Organic Green Tea

More and more tea varieties are available as organic tea nowadays. Every variety of tea, whether Black tea, Green tea, White tea, or Oolong tea, is cultivated in some regions under protocols of organic cultivation. This trend has much to do with a return to the source need which has taken the world by storm in the recent years.

Organic tea is marketed as USDA approved teas. Whether in leaf or bag form, these teas carry the USDA seal. Some even ascertain of the area of origin of the tea. Almost every major variety of tea and blends is carried under this label, namely USDA Ceylon Herbal Tea, USDA Dancing Leaves Green Tea, USDA Flowering Fruit Tea, USDA Green Earl Greyer Tea, USDA Lemon Green Tea with Honey, USDA Mint Fields Herbal Tea, and USDA Temple of Health Herbal Tea.

Organic tea is grown following strict rules of organic cultivation. It makes no use whatsoever of destructive chemicals, preferring to go the natural way and encouraging Nature to provide for better crop cultivation. Chemicals are known to destroy not only the land where they are used, but also the surrounding ecosystem.

Organic cultivation of tea contributes to improved soil fertility. The use of natural fertilizers such as compost, natural organic matter and plants provide all the nutrients and elements needed by the soil to grow better crops. It has been noted that organically grown crops produce a better yield. Organic cultivation also makes use of natural methods of pest control such as little bugs and insects like the pest-controlling spider. Associated with traditional methods like crop rotation and mulching, a more eco-friendly cultivation is thus ensured.

The benefits of organic cultivation of tea also overlap onto the surrounding ecosystem and live habitat around the area. Wildlife is allowed to thrive, and there is less risk of pollution by harmful chemicals. Animals and human are thus protected, and are also provided with a better environment, free of harmful pesticides and other chemicals, some of which may pose serious heath hazards.

Organic tea is also said to retain most of its inherent benefits. Hand picked and processed the orthodox way, the teas carry a quality standard which is not attained by conventional tea manufacture.
