Coffee Origin-Peru

Peru (Peru) is also a big coffee producer. Up to 98% of Peruvian coffee is grown in forest areas, and most producers are small farmers.

Peru has good economic conditions and a stable political situation, thus ensuring the good quality of coffee. However, there are many local problems, in addition to guerrilla warfare and drug trafficking, the emergence of cholera along the coast in the mid-1990s led to a further economic depression, and what is more, the annual inflation rate reached 7000%.

In the mid-1970s, Peruvian coffee production was about 900000 bags a year, and then steadily increased to about 1.3 million bags a year. Although private exporters buy coffee in remote areas through middlemen, the main market is still monopolized by the government. Then came the private Comera de Exportadores de Cafe del Peru, which is committed to improving the quality of coffee. Its primary task is to set standards and eliminate inferior products, thus creating an atmosphere of quality supremacy. This positive move heralds a bright future for the coffee industry. Since then, rising prices have encouraged farmers to actively grow coffee rather than cocoa, the region's traditional cash crop.

Peru's finest coffee is produced in Chanchmayo, Cuzco, Norte and Puno. Most Peruvian coffee is grown under natural conditions, but it is also difficult to confirm the cultivation of all coffee trees. Coffee grown under natural conditions costs 10% to 20% more than others, and farmers may not have the money to buy chemical fertilizers and pesticides in terms of poverty, but it is really difficult to confirm all the coffee.

The quality of Peruvian coffee is comparable to that of any kind of coffee in Central or South America. The high quality coffee produced by Peru is shipped to Germany for blending and then to Japan and the United States, which also illustrates its high standard of quality.
