A Sinhala-language book on tea growing in Sri Lanka, written by Somadasa Abeywickrama and issued by Godage Publishers, an established Colombo house publishing in Sinhala and English. The title translates roughly as Tea Cultivation in Ceylon, and the book sits in the agriculture and related technologies category.
The whole text is in Sinhala, with no English translation or parallel text. That is the single most important thing for a buyer ordering from outside Sri Lanka: unless you read Sinhala comfortably, this will not be a book you can use. For readers who do, it belongs to the practical agricultural writing that Sinhala publishers have long produced for growers, students and extension workers at home.
Likely readers are smallholders and estate staff working with tea, Sinhala-medium students of agriculture, and members of the diaspora who prefer technical reading in their first language. Collectors of Sri Lankan agricultural literature in Sinhala may also want it on the shelf alongside other Godage titles in the field.
