More than 1,400 hectares of tea produced under internationally certified organic standards, with about 90% of output exported to demanding markets such as Europe, the United States and Canada—these figures reflect not only an agricultural product but also a shift in development thinking toward organic agriculture. The roundtable, titled “Sustainable development and value enhancement of the Ban Lien organic tea region,” was organized by the Agriculture and Environment Magazine in coordination with the People’s Committee of Ban Lien Commune. It provided a forum for policymakers, businesses and farmers to discuss how tea can move beyond its traditional role in poverty reduction to become a driver of a sustainable green economy.
