Tea production, cultivation of the tea plant, usually done in large commercial operations. The plant, a species of evergreen (Camellia synesis), is valued for its young leaves and leaf buds, from which the tea beverage is produced.

Tea is mainly grown in Asia, Africa, South America, and around the Black and Caspian Seas. The four biggest tea-producing countries today are China, India, Sri Lanka and Kenya. Together they represent 75% of world production.

Tea is cultivated solely for the purpose of leaves. Tea is harvested by hand, not all leaves are picked during harvesting but only a few top young and juicy leaves with a portion of the stem on which they have grown and the so-called bud (or tip) – an unexpanded leaf at the end of the shoot.
