Plantations & Agriculture sector: what is happening

Last 30 days to Aug 4, 2026

Tea saw mixed signals: the June national sales average fell to Rs 1,153.49, while June production rose 4% YoY but first-half output was hit by extreme weather and higher fertiliser costs. Exporters gained relief as the US labour-related tariff on Sri Lankan goods was cut to 10%.
