Foreign visitors learning pluck tea in tea plantation

The plucking of the two leaves and a bud involves a number of systems - Janam plucking, fish-leaf plucking, step-up plucking etc. Shear plucking is done when there is a scarcity of pluckers during July to September. Pluckers' productivity is found to be maximum in unpruned teas. The plucked leaves are processed to produce the black tea.
