Coffee cultivation in Ecuador covers an area of 305.000 hectares, of which Arabigo coffee accounts for 68 per cent and Robusta coffee accounts for 32 per cent. Coffee, cocoa and bananas are the three traditional crops of Ecuador, which not only provide sources of income for farmers, bring foreign exchange to the country, but also provide employment and stability.

An important crop of society. Due to the collapse of international coffee prices around 2000, coffee cultivation in Eritrea has gradually shrunk, and the share of coffee production in the world has also gradually declined. by 2009, Eritrea's coffee production accounted for only 1% of the world's coffee production. However, the export volume of coffee from Eritrea has gradually increased, mainly due to the developed instant coffee processing industry in Eritrea, which, in addition to home-grown coffee, still imports foreign coffee after processing and re-export.

The planting area of coffee gardens in Ecuador is generally small, with about 80% of coffee farmers planting less than 5 hectares, 13 per cent between 5 and 10 hectares, and only 7 per cent of more than 10 hectares. According to statistics, 20% of the land in coffee plantations is illegally occupied out of an area of about 300000 hectares in the country. According to the coffee association of Eritrea, the most important coffee producing area in Ecuador is in MANABI province and Inbabala province.

(Imbabura) the proportion of planting is not high. The sale of coffee in Ecuador is very special, mainly from domestic buyers to small farmers to negotiate purchases. These middlemen take great pains to rush from village to village to visit farmers one by one and negotiate prices. After negotiation, the coffee is transported to a small number of coffee factories for processing, and then transferred to foreign distributors or processors. The coffee processing industry in Ecuador is mainly located in the three major cities of Huiyueji, Quito and Manda, and only a few towns have traditional small-scale manual processors.

This batch of Finca Lugmapata, owned by the Enrique Merino family, has been planted for more than 100 years. It was planted by the great grandfather of the Enrique family. When it was handed down to the second generation, it was cut and inherited. Only Enrique's father did not sell the land and grew coffee. It was passed on to the third generation Enrique Merino in 2018 with a land area of 222ha. At the same time, Lugo Mapada Manor won the first place in the 2018 Ecuador Golden Cup Taza Dorada (Golden Cup), so this estate hopes to use this successful experience to lead the Chimborazo to the famous and quality of the producing area, please climb to another high-rise.

Taza Dorada (Golden Cup) is a coffee competition in Ecuador. The high-quality coffee raw beans produced by small farmers can be regarded as Ecuador's COE through national and international evaluation. However, unlike the COE system, after the Taza Dorada competition, there is no assistance to win the prize and carry out the system. Almost all the winning batches of coffee raw beans will be booked by buyers who know the goods. This year, a total of 37 small farmers won the prize, and this is the 15th place. At present, more than 90% of Ecuador's coffee is grown in the form of small farmers, and its agricultural technology is not as good as that of Central American coffee producers, and its output is also less than that of Central American coffee producers, and few people import it in Taiwan. Through this gold cup competition in Ecuador, coffee lovers can taste this award-winning batch of high-quality Ecuador coffee.
