If you are short on land, organic is not a good approach. It takes 40% more land compared to traditional farming.

And is it likely that buyers who favour organic produce would be looking at food miles and buying locally? Not sure if that's as relevant at export scale.

How's the organic tea market doing? FWIW, I've never seen organic tea in shops, and I don't know anyone that insists on organic tea.

What country are you in? In the US, I've seen organic tea in the vast majority of grocery stores I've been to. Cafes sometimes have it too, but it's less common.
