| Title: | Sri Lanka - Smallholder Tea and Rubber Revitalization Project (STARR) – December 2021 |
| Description: |
At the Tea Research Institute (TRI), the soil quality index is tested and recommendations are made for direct replanting of tea plants if it meets the relevant criteria (the criteria defers according to the elevation, location, weather, etc.). Soil testing is done in partnership with the STaRR project. The IFAD-funded Smallholder Tea and Rubber Revitalization Project aims to improve food security, increase incomes, and strengthen the resilience of poor rural people in Sri Lanka, all while ensuring that the smallholders are the key decision-makers of the project. By promoting organization among smallholders to produce and market tea, supporting them in improving rubber production and processing, seeking a better link to markets, and facilitating smallholders’ access to rural financing, this project will benefit approximately 32,000 smallholder households. |
