Dimapur, July 28 -- A collaborative team of researchers from Nagaland University and other research institutes across the country has generated insights on climate variability effects on soil microbes & biological health in Assam's tea plantationsThe team studied how seasonal variations in climate affected soil microbial communities and enzyme activities across five representative tea estates at Jorhat in Assam.
The study provides new insights into how climate variability, soil health, and microbial activities are interconnected, which has implications for sustainable and climate-resilient tea cultivation in North-East India.
Tea productivity and quality have become increasingly affected by climate variability. Soil microorganisms and enz...
