Study On The Revival Of Guangdong-Tea Industry During The Periord Of ChenJitang

In modern times, the tea industry of Guangdong faded gradually. In order to revitalize the tea industry in Guangdong Province, Chen Jitang, who was in charge of Guangdong Province from 1929 to 1936, formulated and implemented a number of plans and measures. He planned to improve the tea, construct machinery experimental tea factories and establish tea improving institutions. What's more, he also standardized the tea market, trained professors of tea planting, improved the transport conditions and set up the He Shan tea improving institution and model tea plantations garden and so on. To some extent, these really boosted the development of the tea industry in Guangdong Province, and many of the policies and measures were really full of creativity. However, as a result of fund shortage, the backward domination of the warlords and natural disasters, not all of the projects were put into practice, and some of them didn't fundamentally reverse the decline of the tea industry as well.
