As Baoshan is located in the low-latitude plateau, complex landforms, the formation of "one mountain is divided into four seasons, ten miles of different days" three-dimensional climate, the altitude and climate here is the most suitable for growing coffee. Lujiang and Puhu are the earliest commercialized areas of growing coffee in Yunnan Province, especially the unique temperature difference of Lujiang Dam (which varies greatly in the morning and evening), sufficient sunshine, excellent soil conditions and good planting techniques. Baoshan coffee has formed a unique taste: strong but not bitter, fragrant but not strong, slightly sour.

The planting shrank, and by the end of the 1970s, the planting area of coffee in the city was only 0.3 mu. The third stage is the restart stage. In the late 1980s, with the participation of the Yunnan project assisted by the United Nations Development Programme and the specialized coffee production groups such as Nestle and McDonnell, the price of coffee increased, up to 30 yuan / kg, and Baoshan Coffee started again. By 1997, the planting area of coffee in the city was nearly 30,000 mu; the fourth stage was the stage of rapid development. Since the start and implementation of the province's biological resources development project, Baoshan coffee industry has developed by leaps and bounds.
