The tea plant actually has relatively few problems with pests and dieases. The main issues of concern limiting tea production are fertilizer, water, and temperature.
The tea plant is an evergreen plant that invests a considerable amount of nutrients in its leaves, so when its leaves are harvested, it requires fertilization. Chemical fertilizers can be used, but these cause environmental problems, including soil acidification and pollution of aquatic ecosystems downstream. Organic fertilizers, like those used in traditional tea cultivation for hundreds of years, can reduce these issues.
The other two limiting factors are water, and cold temperatures. The tea plant requires a fair amount of moisture and rainfall. It grows best in humid climates with high rainfall during the growing season, and it cannot be grown in arid and semiarid regions. The tea plant can be grown in tropical to subtropical climates, and often does best in warm subtropical climates. It can handle a light frost, but extensive cold weather will kill the plant or severely stunt its growth.
