Abstract
The present work is proposed to see the effect of a few major weather parameters, mainly average temperature, amount of rainfall received, number of rainy day, open pan evaporation, average sunshine hour, and average humidity on tea production and to develop a simple model for predicting production of tea based on those parameters. This software-based statistical analysis can ensure establishment of a solid model to forecast the effect of successive weather conditions in Upper Assam on the expected crop yield with higher measure of accuracy, thus aiding the tea gardens to a great extent.
