How coffee trees in C ô te d'Ivoire (C ô te d'Ivoire te d'ivoire) taste coffee

As long as it is delicious coffee, coffee consumers are willing to pay a high price; as long as delicious coffee is provided, consumers will not abandon coffee and the market will grow. "High-quality coffee represented by boutique coffee is a big business." Coffee producers and consumers have discovered this simple fact.

In recent years, coffee producing countries no longer blindly pursue high output while neglecting quality. Many countries have begun to introduce a new coffee evaluation system in order to arouse the enthusiasm of producers and promote the production of fine coffee. For example, Brazil began to implement the Cup of excellence coffee rating system in 1999 in order to better subdivide boutique coffee. And boutique coffee has become one of the fastest growing markets in the catering service industry, reaching 12.5 billion US dollars in the United States alone in 2007. All these can see the potential of the boutique coffee market, and the boutique coffee market will certainly grow stronger and stronger in the future.

In terms of quantity, it is one of the largest producers in the world.

C ô te d'Ivoire te d'lvoire has never produced the best quality coffee, and it rarely comes from Arabian coffee trees. In the early 1980s, it was the world's third-largest coffee producer, with an annual output of 5 million bags. Even today, it is still the fifth largest coffee producer in the world, with an annual output of 4.4 million bags. In terms of coffee production, C ô te d'Ivoire is second only to Indonesia (6.8 million bags per year).

In the 1980s Ivorian coffee produced only 250 kilograms per hectare. This is partly due to poverty, but also to the aging of coffee trees. Lack of investment and lack of long-term business plans have also affected coffee production.

The Government of C ô te d'Ivoire has begun to take positive measures to reverse the situation. The National Coffee Management Committee has been reorganized and streamlined, and some production activities have been transferred to private companies for management. The government provides a minimum price guarantee to farmers who produce high-quality coffee and encourages exporters to buy directly from farmers. Today, 80% of exported coffee has found a market in European Community countries, with the main buyers being France and Italy.

It is worth noting that C ô te d'Ivoire is the main centre of coffee smuggling, with as many as 2600 tons of coffee smuggled between 1993 and 1994, mainly through the neighbouring countries of Mali (Mali) and Guinea (Guinea).
