Introduction to ◎:

The Daroni treatment plant was built in 1984 to serve 700 small farmers in the area around the town of Gatundu.

For farmers in this area, although the scale is very small, the farming area of each household is less than one hectare.

However, great attention is paid to farming methods, and compost and farm manure are used regularly to ensure soil fertility.

Some of the problems faced by farmers are due to the low yield caused by diseases and insect pests and the relatively high input cost.

The cooperative has realized the spirit of fair trade, and their plan has not only improved the livelihood of farmers.

It also makes young people willing to continue to grow coffee, including investment in local primary schools.

Finance the education of orphans in the community, establish health centres and replace ageing infrastructure.

Recently, metal drying beds have also replaced part of traditional wooden beds, which are more hygienic and sturdy.
