Rural Vulnerability and Tea Plantation Migration in Eastern Nepal and Darjeeling Sarah Besky Department of Anthropology University of Wisconsin – Madison This paper will analyze migration from rural eastern Nepal to tea plantations in eastern Nepal and Darjeeling and the potentials such migration might represent for coping with rural vulnerability and food scarcity. I will contextualize this paper in a regional history of agricultural intensification and migration, which began in the eighteenth century with Gorkhali conquests of today’s Mechi region and continued in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries with the recruitment of plantation laborers from Nepal to British India. For many Kiranti ethnic groups, agricultural intensification resulted in social marginalization, land degradation due to over-population and over-farming, and eventual migration to Darjeeling to work on British tea plantations. The British lured Rais, Limbus, and other tribal peoples to Darjeeling with hopes of prosperity. When these migrants arrived, they benefited from social welfare like free housing, health care, food rations, nurseries, and plantation schools – things unknown to them under Nepal’s oppressive monarchal regime.

  • Tea Industry in Nepal and Its Impact on Poverty
    Tea Industry in Nepal and its Impact on Poverty Submitted by South Asia Watch on Trade, Economics & Environment (SAWTEE) Kathmandu, Nepal 2006 Draft Report not for citation Paper prepared for the project Linkages between Trade Development and Poverty Reduction, implemented by CUTS International. 1 1. A Brief History of Tea in Nepal Nepali tea industry owes its roots to the colonization of India by the East India Company. Numerous tea plantations around the hill station of Darjeeling were promoted by the British. Hybrids of tea bushes were introduced in several districts in Nepal - Illam, Taplejung, Panchthar and Dhankuta within a few years after their introduction in Darjeeling and the first tea estates were established in 1863 in Illam and Jhapa. But whereas the Darjeeling tea production soon emerged into a prosperous commercial industry, the Nepalese tea production remained low profile until the 1990s, unable to fulfill domestic demand. Decades earlier, in 1966, the Nepalese government had established the Nepal Tea Development Corporation. Initially, Nepalese tea leaves were sold to factories in Darjeeling. With time, the Darjeeling tea bushes had become old and along with internal changes in the industry it led to a deteriorating quality of the Indian tea. These conditions made the Nepalese tea leaves a valuable input for the Indian factories. During the last decade tea processing factories have been built and turned Nepalese tea production into a fully commercialized industry. Although, even today some farmers sell their tea to Indian factories as they get a better prices from across the border. In the early 1990’s, large tea plantations run by the government mainly dominated the tea sector.

  • Nepal Orthodox Tea: Analysis of Industry, Production, and Market Potential
    Nepal Orthodox Tea: Analysis of industry, production, and market potential By Rudra Bahadur Baral M.S., University of Hohenheim, Germany, 2008 A THESIS submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE Department of Agricultural Economics Collage of Agriculture KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2019 Approved by: Major Professor Dr. Aleksan Shanoyan Copyright © Rudra Baral 2019. Abstract This study covers industry analysis, financial analysis and market analysis of Nepal orthodox tea. It aims to evaluate the industry forces, analyze the financial performance of firms, and assess market potential. The study is based on field survey, key informants’ interviews, and participant observation in combination with data from secondary sources. The financial information of 65 tea processing firms was collected using standard financial formats. The production and trade related statistical data were obtained from National Tea and Coffee Development Board Nepal, Trade and Export Promotion Center Nepal, FAOSTAT, International Trade Center and STATISTA. The results of industry analysis indicate that in general, tea processors have low bargaining power against input suppliers and tea buyers. The processing industry was found to be less attractive for new entrants. The threat of substitutes was found to be low. But there is intense internal competition among processing firms for resources and markets. Limited and inefficient production, low economies of scale, unorganized supply chain system, limited access to global market are the major binding constraints identified by this study. The results of the financial analysis found positive returns of investment and increasing returns to scale. However, the average capacity utilization of the processing firms is found to be 33 percent.

    Commercial Hospitality: A Vehicle for the Sustainable Empowerment of Nepali Women Carolyn L. McMillan Strathclyde Business School University of Strathclyde 199 Cathedral Street Glasgow [email protected] Dr. Kevin D. O’Gorman* Strathclyde Business School University of Strathclyde Cathedral Street Glasgow [email protected] Andrew C MacLaren Strathclyde Business School University of Strathclyde 199 Cathedral Street Glasgow [email protected] *corresponding author 1 Commercial Hospitality: A Vehicle for the Sustainable Empowerment of Nepali Women Abstract Purpose – To illustrate how commercial hospitality has catalysed sustainable social change in Nepal through empowering women. Utilising a new framework, developed by combining existing theories, empowerment of women Tea House owners/ managers is assessed. Design/methodology/approach - Within a critical feminist paradigm, primary research consisting of interviews and participant observation was undertaken in Nepal over a three month period in the central region of Nepal. Findings - Involvement in the hospitality industry improved the livelihoods of the women Tea House owners/ managers, it also has the potential to facilitate sustainable empowerment for future generations, providing them with education, choice, control and opportunities. Research limitations/implications - Although steps were taken to limit rhetorical issues, language barriers could have influenced the findings of the interviews. To fully investigate the potential for hospitality to act as a vehicle for the sustainable empowerment of women, it is suggested that this study be replicated again in another region or that a detailed ethnographic study be carried out. Practical Implications - Demonstrates how the commercial hospitality industry can be a force for good; women working in the industry are agents of change, actively improving their levels of empowerment in their immediate environment.
