"Sri Lanka has carved out a niche as a supplier of high-quality,
traditionally processed teas, but many of its tea bushes have low
yields because they are decades past their prime and need to be
replanted."

wonder what's the lifeline, do they count the years and they decide to
replant or just by yield
