The typical coffee farm applies ~ 200 kg/ha of synthetic nitrogen each year, an excessive amount I worked with this farm to phase out synthetic N and cut a total of 195,000 kgs of annual applications The trees are healthier, higher yielding, and the coffee tastes better...
@samdknowlton Is there some kind of labeling we can look for to buy coffee that comes from this type of regenerative agriculture coffee farm?
@ZaritaFloridian Not at currently. There are very few coffee farms that would qualify. Buy from a specialty roaster that has a direct relationship with coffee farmers. Getting more money into the farmers hand is vital.
@samdknowlton @ZaritaFloridian Isn’t the regenerative organic set up for just this case? I’m told if you can get fair trade certified and organic certified your a hood shot @RegenerativeOr2
