Tiger Stripe Village Tea

Tiger Stripe Village Tea

　　The Danling Tiger Stripe Village tea production area is located in Tiger Stripe Village in the western part of Shunlong Township, Danling County. With a population of fewer than 500 people and an average elevation of over 800 meters, the village has leveraged its favorable soil and climate conditions to develop green, eco-friendly tea cultivation. To date, a tea base covering 1,000 mu has been established, of which 500 mu are already fully in production.

Due to the high quality of the tea, nearby tea merchants have been competing to purchase it, keeping the price of fresh leaves at a consistently high level. Up to 500 migrant workers come to the village daily to pick tea. Fresh tea sales have already generated an income of 250,000 yuan, with a per capita income of over 500 yuan — an increase of more than 300 yuan compared to the same period last year. It is estimated that annual fresh leaf sales will exceed 400,000 yuan, achieving a per capita income of over 800 yuan from this single source. The village is currently preparing to establish a tea association, cultivate tea sales brokers, and implement a “association + base + farmer households + market” production and operation model. This tea base has also spurred the development of tea cultivation in the surrounding villages of Wanping, Baiyan, Yangling, and Guanting.
