Coffee Beans Introduction

Coffee beans are mainly the fruits of the plant used to make coffee. There are two types, Arabica beans and Robusta beans. The coffee fruit is composed of two oval seeds. The connecting side is very flat, called flat beans, and the seeds are round, called round beans. There is no difference in their taste.

Coffee bean growing conditions

Coffee beans prefer a warm environment and are drought-resistant but not cold-resistant. They have a wide adaptability to land, but prefer sandy soil with good drainage, deep soil layer, loose and fertile. They do not like large amounts of water and fertilizer. Some farmyard manure can be applied during planting, but the use of various chemical fertilizers and herbicides is absolutely not allowed.

Coffee Bean Growing Climate and Temperature

The yield of coffee beans is affected by climatic conditions. It is suitable for growing in tropical or subtropical regions, so the area between 25 degrees north and south latitude is very suitable for growing coffee.

Coffee trees were originally distributed in Ethiopia in Africa. Their growth is centered on the equator and is distributed in tropical or subtropical farms everywhere.

Coffee bean planting time

Coffee beans are suitable for planting in spring, and are generally sown in mid-to-late April each year. The temperature is high and the air humidity is high at this time, so they will germinate quickly.

Coffee bean planting benefits

Linkou Town, Tongdao Dong Autonomous County, successfully introduced coffee trees from Yunnan for trial planting. It adopted the model of "the company rents land and provides technology, and farmers contract land and provide labor" to promote the planting of coffee trees in surrounding towns and villages. At present, the coffee trees are growing in large areas and are growing well. It is estimated that the output value per mu will exceed 3,000 yuan this year.
