Barboteli Tea Producer Cooperative Society
Barboteli Tea Producer Cooperative Society is located in Ilam Municipality-4, Barbote. Tea cultivation, which started in the Ilam district for the first time in Nepal, has now been declared a designated tea-growing area. This designation considers five districts in Purwanchal as suitable for tea cultivation at the state level. Consequently, there has been a qualitative increase in both the number of tea farmers and their participation. In this context, farmers have united and formed various tea groups and cooperatives.
By producing organic tea in rural areas in accordance with prevailing cooperative principles and values, Barboteli Tea Producer Cooperative Society aims to reduce the impact of chemical production on the health and environment of consumers. Additionally, it seek to increase the income level of low-income farmers by producing organic tea, thereby fulfilling their basic needs in a sustainable manner. By organizing and collecting local resources, tools, knowledge, skills, and information, they unite the economic, social, educational, and cultural development of members at the community level.
Motivated to take action themselves, the Barbotelli Tea Producers Cooperative Society Ltd. was formally registered on 2067-07-28 (Nepali date) at the Division Cooperative Office, Ilam, in accordance with the decisions of the first preliminary meeting held on 2067-05-16 and the second preliminary meeting held on 2067-05-31.
