Tea is in production year round
Ceylon tea from Sri Lanka is acclaimed as the best tea in the world, and tea is in production year round.
Hi,
I came across the above in an article entitled Sri Lanka. I wonder if it's the same to say "tea is grown/produced year round" instead of the original "tea is in production year round." If not, what are the differences? Thanks.

I agree that the original is unusual and ambiguous. I don't know much about tea, but I know that one makes it, steeps it, strains it, grows it, harvests it. Does one pick it?

- I guess sometimes tea is steeped from "full" leaves.
- Perhaps "producing tea" refers to (perhaps) drying the leaves, grinding or chopping up the leaves, and packaging the leaves for sale.
