Pepper

Tata Coffee Limited has 13.5 lakh tree standards with pepper with an annual production of 1,000 metric tonnes. 25 per cent of the produce is converted into value addition like white pepper, dehydrated green pepper, and pepper in brine.

Pepper is cultivated as an intercrop with coffee, where the pepper vines grow on the shade trees planted to provide natural shade to coffee. Being a large grower, Tata Coffee has the infrastructure for value addition, mechanised de-corning and hygienic processing.
