A brief history of coffee in Nicaragua:

From 1840 to 1940, it was the "coffee craze" (Coffee Boom) in Nicaragua.

Coffee began to become a major export crop in Nicaragua, which was vigorously promoted by the government.

Foreign companies can easily invest or acquire land, leading to the birth of large manors.

After that, the autocratic ruler Somoza established the coffee cooperative (1936-1979).

But it was soon overthrown by the Sanding National Liberation Front (Sandinistas).

When Nepal entered communist rule in 1979, the coffee trade became very difficult.

The CIA began to support the rebels (Contras) in an attempt to overthrow the New deal in order to gain greater benefits

They did not hesitate to attack coffee workers' vehicles, sabotage processing plants and create unrest.

This is another big blow to Nepalese coffee. Nevertheless, coffee is still the country's most important export cash crop.

After the 20th century, coffee prices plummeted (1999-2003), hurricanes and millennium droughts

Today, there are about 40,000 coffee farmers in Nepal. Due to the shortage of funds for chemical fertilizers, most coffee trees are grown organically.

Coffee farmers began to focus on quality and production and marketing experience.

("production and marketing resume" means that coffee can be traced back to a single manor, or a common cooperative formed by producers. )

Nigeria's coffee industry is showing signs of a gradual revival.
