| Summary: | Tea is one of the most significant cash crops and plays an important role in economic development and poverty reduction. On the other hand, tea is an optimal choice in the extreme weather conditions of Tanuyen Laichau, Vietnam. In our study, the NDVI variation of tea in the growing season from 2009 to 2018 was showed by calculating NDVI trend and the Mann-Kendall analysis to assess trends in the time series. Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Random Forest (RF) model were used for predicting tea yield. The NDVI of tea showed an increasing trend with a slope from −0.001–0.001 (88.9% of the total area), a slope from 0.001–0.002 (11.1% of the total area) and a growing rate of 0.00075/year. The response of tea NDVI to almost climatic factor in a one-month time lag is higher than the current month. The tea yield was estimated with higher accuracy in the RF model. Among the input variables, we detected that the role of Tmean and NDVI is stronger than other variables when squared with each of the independent variables into input data.
