Coffee farmers are looking for buyers.

Baisha coffee, which grew up in Baisha crater in Hainan, was once the darling of the market because of its aroma and good taste, but now it has not been purchased. On January 7, Cheng Zongpei, president of Baisha Meteorite Ridge Coffee planting Cooperative, said in an interview with reporters that the backlog of coffee beans last year and the coffee beans picked this year totaled more than 300,000 jin, but so far no one has bought them. He hopes to attract more buyers to buy white sand coffee through media reports, so that coffee growers have the money to have a good New year.

Used to be the darling of the market because the coffee tastes good.

Baisha crater is located in Baisha Farm 24 team, 9 kilometers southeast of Chengya fork Town, Baisha County. Baisha Crater has two "treasures", Baisha Coffee and Baisha Green Tea.

According to Cheng Zongpei, as early as 1982, farmers at Baisha Farm used the land next to the crater green tea base to grow coffee. After more than 30 years of development, the number of Baisha coffee growers has grown to more than 30, and coffee cultivation has also reached more than 600 mu. Baisha coffee has also become a popular ecological agricultural product in Baisha meteor crater as well as Baisha green tea.

"Baisha coffee has been the first-class product that major coffee manufacturers have been competing to acquire for many years, because it is a high-end coffee bean." Cheng Zongpei said proudly that Baisha coffee grown in Baisha Crater is very popular with consumers because of its natural milk and chocolate flavor, as well as its good taste and taste.

The price of coffee is reduced, no one buys it, and the suspicion group depresses the price.

Li villager, a coffee grower at Baisha Farm, said that in 2013, the price of coffee beans basically remained at 18 to 20 yuan per catty. In the first half of 2014, the price of coffee beans began to change greatly. First, the price fell and the purchasers lowered the price. Later, when the acquisition enterprises changed the law, they said that coffee beans should be divided into different grades, and the other said that they would only buy red coffee beans.

"in previous years, coffee companies are door-to-door acquisitions, coffee beans are not worried about the market." Villagers Li said that today, the price of coffee has dropped too much. Growers originally thought that the price of rubber had dropped and was supported by coffee income, but now coffee has dropped to 16 yuan per jin, but no one has bought it, making all their coffee growers want to cry without tears.

"now I also suspect that there are enterprises maliciously huddling together to lower prices." Cheng Zongpei believes that according to the analysis of people in the coffee industry, coffee companies maliciously huddle together to hold down prices, waiting for farmers to buy at a low price when they cannot carry it.

More than 300,000 jin of coffee seeks to buy a factory in the future and create a brand.

"to help coffee growers sell coffee beans, a coffee grower cooperative was set up in June last year." Cheng Zongpei said that although there have been buyers to buy coffee, but they are scattered, the number of acquisitions is small, far from helping growers to open up markets and recover planting costs.

Cheng Zongpei told reporters that Baisha coffee growers currently have a backlog of more than 30,000 jin of coffee beans in the warehouse. Seeing that the coffee beans are picked faster than the peak season, it is estimated that if the coffee beans on the trees are picked back, it will reach more than 300000.

Cheng Zongpei said that because coffee beans are difficult to preserve for six months to a year, by that time, the backlog of coffee beans in the warehouse will become a "hot potato," and growers without storage technology will lose all their money. Therefore, he hopes to call on coffee production enterprises to make door-to-door acquisitions through media reports to help farmers tide over the difficulties.

Speaking of his plans for the future, Cheng Zongpei said that he wanted to look for the market again through the media, and if it didn't work, he would pool money and loans with members of the cooperative to buy coffee processing equipment, set up a coffee processing plant, and start his own coffee brand.
