Introduction to the variety and rich taste of Papua New Guinea Coffee

The market for coffee in Papua New Guinea:

The coffee industry plays an important role in the country's economy. The government encourages planting by offering a minimum purchase price. The industry itself is controlled by the Coffee Industry Council (CoffeelndustryBoard). The commission is located in Goroka, in the eastern part of the island, while exports are handled by private companies.

The government has established a new level of quality, temporarily suspended the production of coffee such as Y, and no longer implemented the "one grade, one price" policy with the characteristics of Papua New Guinea coffee:

Flavor: varied, rich taste, full particles, a wide range of uses

Suggested baking method: moderate to deep roasting, used to prepare mixed coffee drinks with excellent results.

★★: good coffee producing areas of Papua New Guinea:

In PapuaNewGuinea, about 75 per cent of coffee products come from small local farms. Many farms reclaim land in the forest, and some are in the depths of the forest, almost isolated from the rest of the world. The country's coffee is of high quality because it is grown in the highlands of 1300m above sea level, 1,800 metres above sea level. Although coffee is also grown in some lowlands, the yield is relatively small. Most of the locally grown coffee is grown under natural conditions because of the problems and high costs of transporting chemical fertilizers and pesticides to the farm.

Although coffee trees grow vigorously in some places, the coffee beans harvested vary in size and size due to the lack of persistence of the growers. Among the high grades, AA is rare, and generally available are An and AB. The main characteristics of Grade A coffee are: full grains, light acidity and endless aftertaste. The frost of 1975 destroyed most coffee crops in Brazil, but stimulated the development of the coffee industry in Papua New Guinea. The Government has implemented a scheme to subsidize rural or collective landowners to create about 20 hectares of coffee plantations. This measure does increase the penetration of coffee in the local economy and increase the annual output of coffee.
