PNG plans to revive coffee industry

The coffee industry, which is the main source of income for half of the PNG's 7 million people, creates an average annual output value of 450 million Gina, but it has been on a gradual decline. Paxin Coffee analysed the reasons for the decline, mainly: ageing coffee trees on coffee plantations and small farms, high debt, poor rural roads and infrastructure, ageing factories and equipment, increasing landowner problems, persistent quality problems, land and labour shortages, pests and diseases and damage caused by climate change.

The impact of the above problems is that the output of coffee per hectare has dropped from two tons to 500 kilograms, and the quality of coffee is not as good as it used to be. Not long ago, the head of the PNG Coffee Company said that the PNG coffee industry is facing an extremely difficult situation, with exports of 962 million Gina in 2011 and a sudden drop to 336 million Gina in 2013.
