Coffee is an extremely "delicate" crop, whether planting fertilization or picking and drying processing, all require meticulous management, the deficiency of any link will affect the quality of the product.

Duan Shaohua, a villager of Xinzhai Village, has been engaged in coffee cultivation and production for more than 20 years. In his view, the low purchase price of coffee has also affected the improvement of coffee quality. Coffee cultivation in Lujiangba area is dominated by farmers, and the degree of agricultural mechanization is low, and the planting management process mainly depends on manpower, such as picking all depends on manual labor, while coffee fresh fruit ripens in batches, coffee beans are easy to taste deterioration, the most taboo fruit and ripe fruit mixed, picking should also be in batches. However, due to the low price of coffee, in order to reduce labor costs, farmers have to wait for ripe fresh fruit to reach a certain number, and then hire workers to pick it at once, resulting in a mixture of over-ripe fresh fruit and immature fresh fruit. In this way, the quality of coffee is very good on the tree, but it reduces the quality after picking. Without the support of reasonable purchase price, it is difficult to jump out of the strange circle of low-income ─, low-input ─ and low-quality.

The rice loss of coffee is 5 yuan per jin of coffee.

Xie Xianwen, general manager of Xinzhai Coffee Co., Ltd., which is engaged in coffee processing, has been engaged in coffee processing for more than 18 years. He believes that many difficulties in coffee production are related to the low purchase price of coffee, as long as the purchase price can reach the price of a cup of coffee, many difficulties can be easily solved.

Xie Xianwen estimates that farmers need an input cost of 17.5 yuan (RMB, the same below) for every kilogram of coffee rice, while the purchase price of coffee beans in recent years is only 12.5 yuan per kilogram, which means? The farmer lost 5 yuan for every kilogram of coffee rice he planted.

Reasonable income to ensure the quality of coffee

"in the mainland market, the price of each cup of coffee is at least 38 yuan, while each kilogram of coffee beans can brew 80 cups of coffee, the price can reach 3040 yuan, and the difference between the value of raw materials and finished products is as high as 243times. As long as the purchase price of coffee beans can reach more than 40 yuan, it can well mobilize the production enthusiasm of farmers. " He said that only with reasonable income can farmers have more investment in production, careful management and cultivation, and the quality of coffee can be better guaranteed; as far as processors are concerned, after the quality of raw materials is improved, the added value of their products is also higher, forming a virtuous circle, which is conducive to the healthy development of the coffee industry.
