Gicumbi tea farmers raise concerns about lack of market

Tea farmers in Mulindi, Gicumbi District, say they are incurring losses due to limited market access for their produce. The farmers complained that Mulindi Tea Factory was frustrating them by reneging on a pledge to buy all their harvests. Farmers, who spoke to The New Times, said that harvested tea currently remains in the farms yet this is the period when they project to maximise on their profits margin.
