What are the characteristics of Papua New Guinea coffee and what are the famous manors

Among the seven continents in the world, Oceania is the smallest state in the world, mainly composed of mainland Australia and more than 10,000 islands scattered in the Pacific Ocean. The formation of islands in Oceania is related to volcanism, so volcanic landforms are widely distributed and varied. Most of them are hills and platforms at an altitude of 200,600m, but some mountains are more than 2000 meters above sea level.

Because of the latitude between the north and the south, there are obvious differences in climate and various types. It has high-altitude mountains, volcanic soil and diverse climate, so most of the countries here are agricultural countries, and some countries and regions are rich in coffee, such as Papua New Guinea, Hawaii and so on.

The country consists of New Guinea in the north and Papua in the south. The main part is the eastern part of the island of New Guinea, while it includes more than 600 surrounding islands, most of which are mountainous and volcanic. In the south of the country, there are mainly plains and lowlands, and the elevation is low, so coffee is mainly grown in the central mountain system in the middle, which is mainly the Bismarck Mountains, is full of volcanoes, has many rivers and is rich in natural resources.

In Papua New Guinea, areas above 1000 metres above sea level have a mountain climate, with an average temperature of about 16,027 ℃ and an average annual rainfall of 2500 mm. With high-altitude mountains, fertile soil brought by volcanic ash, rich nature and suitable climate and rainfall, it can be said that Papua New Guinea has unique conditions for growing coffee.

According to historical records, coffee was grown in Papua New Guinea in the 1890s, but it was not initially considered a commercial product. In the 1930s, the country was managed by Australia, while Jamaica was a British colony, and Papua New Guinea introduced Typica from the Jamaican Blue Mountains because of Britain's friendly relations with Australia. And Papua New Guinea and Jamaica have a similar island-type geographical environment and climate, the introduction of iron card varieties quickly adapted to the local environment, and therefore known as the "Little Blue Mountain". After that, the country introduced the Bourbon variety from Kenya and Mundo Novo and Kaddura (Caturra) from Brazil to improve the quality and yield of coffee in the country.

At present, coffee cultivation in Papua New Guinea is concentrated in four central highland provinces, namely, the West Highlands (Western Highlands), the East Highlands (Eastern Highlands), Chinbu (Chimbu) and Jiwaka Province.

Among them, the Western Highlands Province (Western Highlands) is the largest coffee producing area in the country, and the capital of the province is Mount Hagen, which is located in the Wahgi valley, named after the nearby famous extinct volcano Mount Hagen. With its high altitude, fertile volcanic soil, appropriate rainfall and temperature, it is very suitable for agricultural cultivation, and there are many coffee and tea plantations nearby, such as the famous West Glory Paradise Bird Manor (Sigri).

Founded in 1950, Siguri Paradise Bird Manor (Sigri) is the pioneer of the local coffee industry, located in the mountains of the Waghi Valley Valley (about 1500 meters above sea level). The estate's parent company is WR Carpenter company-PNG, which has about 1000 hectares of coffee grown in Papua New Guinea and is the country's largest coffee exporter, accounting for 80 per cent of the country's exports of beans and tea.

In addition, the Sigley Paradise Bird Manor pays great attention to ecological protection, refusing to use pesticides and pesticides to protect water and soil. And has been adhering to high standards of planting and handling for many years, providing customers with coffee of the same quality.
