Tea prices continue moving skyward
Strong consumer demand and unusual climatic conditions in some of the major tea producing countries have pushed tea prices at auction centres around the world to the highest levels in decades. Between January and December 1997 the world's main auction centres saw the price of tea rise into high double digits: in Calcutta, India +69%; Mombassa, Kenya +43.2%; Blantyre, Malawi +74.6% and Colombo, Sri Lanka +53.8%. The rising price trend is expected to continue at least until the end of 1998.
