Ecuador imports pest-resistant coffee seeds to revive coffee industry
In recent years, the Latin American coffee industry has been plagued by coffee leaf rust (CoffeeRoya), and Ecuador has not been spared. Since 2012, coffee bean exports have lost a total of US $20 million, with exports of US $28.8 million, US $14.8 million and US $9.7 million respectively in the first five months of the past three years, with an annual decline of 30-40 per cent. exports of coffee products made from coffee beans rose from US $61 million in the first five months of 2012 to US $78.6 million in the same period in 2013, but fell to US $61.5 million this year, returning to 2012 levels.
In order to revitalize the country's coffee cultivation and processing industry, the Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Husbandry and Fisheries has carried out a project for the renewal of coffee varieties, importing 85 tons of pest-resistant coffee seeds from Brazil and renewing an area of 20000 hectares of coffee trees. Ecuadorian coffee and related products are mainly exported to Colombia, the United States, Germany and Poland.
