This study explores the impact of high-density planting on the yield, quality and earnings of tea. High-density planting means planting more tea trees than usual in plots of the same size. In actual planting, it has been found that doing so enables better utilization of sunlight, water and nutrients in the soil, thereby increasing the yield of tea. This study analyzed the influences of factors such as planting density, tea tree varieties, and local environmental conditions on the growth of tea trees and tea yield. It is also pointed out that daily management tasks such as watering, pruning and fertilizing are very important and play a key role in managing high-density tea gardens well. Although high-density planting can increase the yield and quality of tea, it also brings some problems, such as greater difficulty in pest and disease control and easier soil degradation. This study aims to strike a balance between increasing production and protecting the environment, ensuring the long-term sustainable development of high-density tea cultivation.
