Last Updated: 2026/02/14, Coffee may be the love of many people, but did you know that climate change could make about half of Ethiopia's coffee-growing regions unfit for coffee cultivation by the end of the century? The findings, from a paper published online in Nature Plants, suggest climate change threatens coffee cultivation and that it is necessary to understand the impact of climate change on coffee production.

Coffee can be said to be a favorite of many people, but did you know that by the end of the century, climate change may cause about half of Ethiopia's coffee producing areas to be unsuitable for coffee cultivation. The findings come from a recent paper published online in the journal Natural plants, which says that climate change poses a threat to coffee cultivation and that it is necessary for people to understand the impact of climate change on coffee yield. but it is not easy to predict the effects of climate change at a local level.

But researchers from the Royal Botanical Gardens in London also said that through the transfer of coffee producing areas, afforestation and forest protection, the total area of coffee cultivation is expected to quadruple.
