The prices for the most recent year released, 2003, show the FAO Composite price average at £795 (US $1510) per metric tonne (1000kg), with global tea trade sales of approximately £1.37 billion (US$2.6 billion) for that year.
This is two percent higher than in 2002, but four percent lower than the 2001 figure.
Record levels of production should have caused an oversupply, but price remained relatively stable main as a result of increasing demand in the Russian Federation and in developing countries. Organic production has also increased with China and India producing 56, and 33 percent of world output, respectively.
