Dehong small grain coffee is native to Africa and Ethiopia and is the main cultivated variety in the world. In 1951, coffee seed was first introduced to Dehong Luxi Cotton cropping Experimental Station for productive cultivation. The seedlings were planted in 6 mu and grew well. In 1956, the Dehong Prefecture Committee decided to vigorously develop coffee in the whole state, and held a training course on coffee planting techniques throughout the state, so that small-grain coffee was widely developed in the whole state.
