About 800000 households are involved in coffee production, and coffee plants are interlaced with bananas, beans and other crops. Coffee export income accounts for about 80%, far exceeding the economic benefits of other crops.

Burundi is surrounded by Rwanda, Tanzania and Congo to the north, east and west, respectively, and more than half of its border with the Democratic Republic of the Congo lies on the famous Lake Tanganyika. Located in the steep rift valley of East Africa, Burundi has complex terrain, and the magnificent ridge on the east bank of Lake Tanganyika is also a watershed between the Nile River system and the Congo River system of two major rivers in Africa, inherently known as "Heart of Africa" (The heart of Africa).
