A look at the digital upgrade of the black tea industry in Qimen, China

Qimen, China (ANTARA) - In recent years, the Qimen area in the city of Huangshan, famous for its black tea, has digitalised its tea industry. As part of these efforts, smart sensors are installed in tea gardens to monitor weather changes and soil moisture in real time, while sprinkler-based irrigation systems deliver water according to need, supporting more meticulous maintenance. Qimen also uses drones to transport freshly picked tea leaves to the foot of the hill in minutes, significantly boosting transport efficiency. In addition, Qimen has improved the entire black tea production chain by introducing intelligent integrated production lines to ensure a standardised production process. The improvements also help Qimen black tea reach overseas markets and further strengthen the competitiveness of Chinese black tea on a global scale.
