 We shall discuss about plucking and tipping of tea plant.  furnist하기. So, what is plucking?  plucking in tea is synonym of studa harvest in other crops. It is basically the harvesting in tea plantation. So, what do we harvest from tea plant. We harvest the tender, epical portion of the shoot.             . for comparison we all know this in our태 Kubernetes we all know this in our태 the standard epic portion of the suit consist of two to three lead in one terminal so it is theadesh rences are periodic to keep the branches more or less permanently in a venitative fates since there is more news growth. teok u pal ja duuko re parahhi su ze jeapui yeti jup studying to see the indicators of Hou housing improvement. audience arekumul yeti ki yagun who also already presented thisように witnessed the video which appeared recentlyrą okay kairidab kitu up up higa and thus it is one of the most important practices accounting around 15 to 20 percent of the total cost of tea production. Further the plucking operation alone involves about 60 to 70 percent of the total labour force and thus it makes the tea cultivation a lever intensive one. So, during plucking some creres should be taken so that mature green leaves are being plucked. As the optimum level of chemical compounds and enzymes which synthesize the polyphenols in made tea is basically occurred in phase green leaves. Basically, in tea garden what happened plucking is generally carried out by the pluckers. Pluckers will okay that the plucking operation to correct, pluck to like adjust to correct. However, strict supervision is necessary to maintain the quality of green leaves and correct maturity time to avoid the waste in tea manufacture. So, what happened in tea plant some terminology is there called as primary, these are some shoots or branches which are developed from the light prune bush and these are called as primary. Now, before plucking these primaries are basically decapitated or tipped. I mean, what happens is that the plucking corer is given to the prune bush so that the green leaves can be plucked. So, the prune bush is given to the prune bush so that the green leaves can be plucked. So, this is necessary to decapitated or tipped at predetermined height. So, you can see in the table the tipping height for different types of prune and skiff. Prune are skiff corer upro dhittikori. Bibi na height at ami aak singa kai ja khusitu ami kori va paru. You can see in the table the tipping height for different types of prune and skiff. Prune are skiff corer upro dhittikori. Bibi na height at ami kori va paru. You can see in the table, as for example, if the tip plant is medium or heavy prune, that ya hole keti kiki kori va lagi va, ami jitu tipping operation ba aak singa kai ja khusitu, 30 cm jitu agar pruning kora hoise, he pruning kora apara 30 cm upro dhittikori. Ami pasor pora swai khela pat raki, ami jitu tipping operation ba aak singa primary bilakor ba ghai jitu dal hoi he dal aur aak to singa di ba lagi va. Bibi na pruning aur skiffing aur karne bibi na ussotat ami aak bilak singa ba paru. You can see in the tables for different tipping height for different pruning and skiffing. Now come to the plucking systems. So what is plucking system? There are basically various plucking systems followed in different countries. However, three system of plucking mainly followed. These are Janom plucking, Fiss leaf plucking, and single leaf plucking. Bibi na, dehaut bibi na dal aur plucking system folo kora hoizodiu, hadharun te tinta plucking system amar hadharun ba ba aak ami aak bilakoru. He keta hoise Janom plucking, Fiss leaf plucking, aur single leaf plucking. So here there is a picture. You can see in the picture different types of leaves like a mother leaf, scale leaf, Fiss leaf, then Janom leaf, and a suit. Now what is a Janom plucking? And this Janom plucking is basically followed in northeastern state. Amar ji bilak sahabagan ase, he sahabagan bilakoru, ami e Janom plucking to abalamban koru. Aur indi Janom plucking, what happens, ta, su char plucked above the Janom. Jitu Janom leaf, ya dekhah goise sobhi honan, he Janom leaf to upajodi, patula kai johi chatu kora hoi, te tya hale hei to gami Janom plucking buli kaum. Now what is Fiss leaf plucking? In Fiss leaf plucking, su char plucked leaving the Fiss leaf. You can see in the picture. And in single leaf plucking, it is done, leaving the Janom, the Fiss leaf and one single folious leaf. So what happen, outside north east India, Fiss leaf and single leaf plucking are the normal practices, generally followed, they generally followed the Fiss and single leaf plucking. Now come to the plucking round. Plucking round mean patula sakra. It is one of the most important thing. What is a plucking round? Plucking round is the time interval in days between the successive plucking operation. Dutta patula mazorji to be bodhan. Hei to gami patula sakra buli kaum. Generally I have already told that generally it is varies from 4 to 14 days. So dharpara, sarirpara so dhari nole ami ae be bodhan to ami abonong karu. Though 7 days round is the most common practice. During plucking, plucking should be adjusted to the leaf period. Now what is leaf period? So what is a leaf period? Leaf period is a time interval between unfolding of two successive leaves on a growing shoot. Dutta dhala thoka, dutta leaf, dutta patula mazor, aga pisakui thoka, dutta patula mazor, khul khua. Unfolding of the successive leaf, khul khua, jitu hiata be bodhan, hei to gami leaf period, buli kong. Aru, edis plucking should be adjusted to that leaf period. Why this should be adjusted like that? Say for an example, say for an example, if the leaf period is 4 days, ami zudi hei pat khul khua, be bodhan to saridinia buli babu, jitu hiata hale, esu to it one leaf and one growing bud. Ekhi la pat aru eta kolithoka, eta kolithoka, khakha kanda to. After 4 days, it will become a shoot with two leaves and one bud. Aru ekhi la pat kul kha bo, guti ke, it will become two leaves and one bud. And after next 4 days, the shoot will be became three leaves with one bud. Okay, but what I have told, what we harvest from the tea plant, we harvest the tender shoot, with two or three leaves and one bud. So, if we follow the longer plucking cycle, then the leaf will be become more than three. So, we will decrease the quality of the tea plucking. I have already told that in northeastern state, generally the seven days plucking cycle is followed. Why? Because in this region, the main leaf period is taken as four days. If the tea plants are grown from seed, seed propagated jipilak, guttipura jipilak puli gojwa hai, he sagas bilakar, jitu leaf period, he to amar ansol bilakak, saridin puli dharah hai. In many tea gardens, the tea leaves are plucked weekly interval from April to December and after that, tea plants undergo inter-dormancy and no crops are harvested during these days. So, this is this. Amar agar iddha bilakar payahisu jai, amar jipilak hitkalin hoopta abas tabulikao, December mahar piswat, sahabagan bilakar, sagas bilak hitkalin hoopta abas tat jai. And because of this, he maykinid, kuno dharna plucking operation karanah hai. So, generally this plucking operation is done at weekly interval from their growing period. That is from April to December. So, if longer plucking round is followed, it ultimately decreased the quality of the mate tea. Normally what happens most of the suits when they become larger with four or more leaves, they become bungee. Say for the example, you can refer the table how longer plucking round impact the quality of the suit, harvested suit. Tabul khunat dekhwa hoise jai, jodi etha battheke after 12 days, it will longer jodi plucking, patula sakura, abalangban, baraudinar piswat, etha battheke le, tinikhila pataro etha batho bo. Jodi, ami one leaf and there is one bud, then it will become four leaves and one bud after 12 days. And if there is two leaves and one bud, then it will become three or more leaves and one bud, which will ultimately decrease the quality. But because seven days it will interval, it will become two or three leaves with one bud, ethi koli, dutipat, ami, pao. Now come to the standard of plucking. Now come to the standard of plucking. What is standard of plucking? Standard of plucking denotes the type of suit harvested or in other words, it refers to the fineness or coarseness of the harvested suit. Depending on five standard of plucking, basically recognized in Northeast India, there are five standard of plucking recognized in Northeast India. These are fine, standard, medium, coarsed and black. However, only two standard of plucking are adopted. These are black and standard. So, what happens in black plucking, almost all types of suits above the small suit with one leaf are not plucked and are allowed to retain on the table. You can see in the table the types of suit plucked under the two plucking standard, that is black plucking and standard plucking. So, as a long-term policy, standard plucking is considered to be the superior to the black plucking for the tea in the plains of Northeast India. Now come to the methods of plucking. Basically, two methods of plucking are there. One is manual plucking, manual or hand plucking and other is the mechanical plucking. So, in country like India, what happens? Basically, the hand plucking or manual plucking is adopted. However, mechanical plucking is becoming popular and has been used in large scale in many other countries like Japan, Mauritius, Russia, Argentina, South Africa, India, Malawi, Australia and New Guinea, etc. So, dear learners, with this, we come to the end of today's lecture. Thank you.
