Both India and Vietnam remained stable, though Vietnam is on an upward trajectory with a 1.49% increase. The United Arab Emirates showed a notable decline of 4.36%.
Future trends to watch include potential growth in China's losses as consumption patterns evolve. Vietnam's upward trend indicates increasing challenges, while Sri Lanka's ongoing decline suggests improvements in tea processing and storage. Maintaining stability in other key countries will be crucial for minimizing losses globally.
