Abstract
Under the background of sustainable agricultural development and ecological protection, tea gardens are faced with problems of soil degradation, ecological imbalance, and quality improvement. The model of “worm entering tea garden” came into being. Studies have shown that earthworms can improve soil, promote the growth of tea trees, improve tea yield and quality, and maintain ecological balance, provide a basis for green production and sustainable development, and provide new ideas for solving problems in tea gardens and exploring agricultural ecological models, promote win-win economic and ecological benefits, and promote high-quality development.
