This study was carried out to determine the changing of yield and quality characteristics according to sunshine conditions and harvest periods in fresh tea leaves (Camelia sinensis L.). This study was planned at three tea orchards which sunny during the day (100% PAR), sunny half-day (66% PAR) and shady (41% PAR) and at three harvest periods. Experiment was set up out in randomized blocks design with two factors and three replications. In the results, it was determined that the most yield was obtained at shady orchard (41% PAR) and in the first harvest period; total ash and caffeine contents were non-significantly to all factors; the most dry matter was sunny half-day orchard (66% PAR), the most total polyphenols was at shady orchard (41% PAR) and in the second harvest period; the most crude cellulose content was sunny half-day orchard (66% PAR) and in the third harvest period; the most water extract was sunny during the day orchard (100% PAR) and in the first harvest period.
