Evaluation of simple hand-held Mechanical systems for harvesting tea (Camellia Sinensis)

Burgess, Paul J.; Carr, M. K. V.; Mizambwa, F. C. S.; Nixon, D. J.; Lugusi, J.; Kimambo, E. I. (Cambridge University Press, 2006-04-01)

Over an eight-year period, harvesting methods based on simple mechanical aids (blade and shear) were evaluated against hand harvesting on mature morphologically contrasting tea clones in Southern Tanzania. The effects ...
The management of tea research

Huq, Mainul (Cranfield University, 1996-02)

Sponsors and clients of agricultural R&D are showing increasing concern about research costs and benefits. R&D organisations need to assess the impact of research to justify spending, obtain continuous technical ...
An overview of tea research in Tanzania - with special reference to the Southern Highlands.

Carr, M. K. V.; Ndamugoba, D. M.; Burgess, Paul J.; Myinga, G. R. (1992-10-09)

The history of tea development in Tanzania from the early part of this century to the present is summarised. Average yields of made tea from well managed estates in the Mufindi district have increased from around 600 kg ...
Responses of tea clones to drought in Southern Tanzania

Burgess, Paul John (1992-02)

A line-source experiment, planted in August 1988, was used to quantify the yield responses of six tea (Camellia sinensis) clones to drought in Southern Tanzania. The selected clones (1, 6/8, SFS150, S15/10, 207 and K35) ...
Responses of Young Tea (Camellia Sinensis) Clones to Drought and Temperature II: Dry Matter Production and Partitioning

Burgess, Paul J.; Carr, M. K. V. (Cambridge University Press, 1996-01-01)

The physiological basis for differences in yields from well-watered and droughted plants of four contrasting clones of tea were studied in terms of light interception, dry matter production and partitioning at a high ...
Responses of Young Tea (Camellia Sinensis) Clones to Drought and Temperature. I. Yield and Yield Distribution

Burgess, Paul J.; Carr, M. K. V. (Cambridge University Press, 1996-07-01)

The yield responses to drought and temperature of six contrasting tea clones were studied in a line-source irrigation experiment in Southern Tanzania. The selected clones, all commercially and/or scientifically important ...
The water relations and irrigation requirements of sugar cane (Saccharum officinarum): a review.

Carr, M. K. V.; Knox, Jerry W. (Cambridge University Press, 2011-01-01)

The results of research on the water relations and irrigation needs of sugar cane are collated and summarized in an attempt to link fundamental studies on crop physiology to irrigation practices. Background information ...
