Burundi Burundi

Burundi is a landlocked country in East Africa, with Rwanda to the north, Tanzania to the east and the Republic of the Congo to the west.

In terms of climate, Burundi is regulated by the highlands, so it belongs to the savanna climate, with annual rainfall of about 1200 to 1600.

Because it is located in the western branch of the East African Rift Valley, most of the whole territory is a plateau with an altitude of more than 1500 above sea level, and the height decreases from west to east.

There is a freshwater lake called Lake Tanganyika (Lake Tanganyika) between Burundi and the Republic of the Congo.

Verified by geologists, Lake Tanganyika is the second deepest and oldest lake in the world.

The lake is rich in biological species, accounting for 80% of the world's fish species alone.

To the east of Lake Tanganyika, there is a suddenly towering ridge, which happens to be the watershed between the Nile and Congo River systems.

Therefore, it also has the good name of "Heart of Africa".

The alpine climate makes Burundi very suitable for coffee growth. Agriculture is the main economic form of the country, and 80% of the foreign exchange earnings come from coffee exports.

40% of the country's population, 600000 families, are engaged in coffee production.

In the 1930s, when it was a Belgian colony, Burundi began to grow coffee

From 1980s to 1993, the World Bank invested heavily in the coffee industry in Burundi, setting up washing plants and coffee gardens everywhere.

The number of coffee trees has increased from 90 million to more than 200 million, and 133 washing plants have been set up, with 160 at present.

Raw bean merchants from the United States and Northern Europe have gone to Burundi in recent years to help local coffee farmers improve the quality of their coffee.
