dc.description.abstractNote: See the PDF Version With the globalization of food and beverage industry, international organizations and food importing countries from every part of the world are concerned more about the food safety and have imposed very stringent regulations aiming a higher level of food safety. In recent past, Japan & EU have stipulated the Maximum Residue Levels (MRL) for various pesticides including some of which are used in tea fields. Conversely, it may not only the Japan and EU but in future all other tea importing countries would impose such stringent safety laws and regulations for our tea (Premathilaka, 2007). Sri Lankan tea could expect a bright future only if it can comply with international standards at both field and factory levels. Our rigorous efforts have to be made to avoid all possible ways of build-up of residues. In this context, it is very important to follow all TRI recommendations on pesticides to ensure that Sri Lanka still produces the "cleanest tea in the world" (Premathilaka, 2007). Therefore, adoption of MRL by the tea estate sector is imperative to open more of the world markets for Sri Lankan tea and gives a much needed competitive edge. This study was conducted to assess the factors affecting for adoption to of tea by the tea estate sector.en_US
