Introduction of Santa Barara Manor in San Juan Coffee producing area of Honduras

Honduras is a major coffee grower in Central America. 15 of the country's 18 provinces have coffee plantations, and more than 100000 coffee growers have created nearly a million jobs in the country.

In recent years, coffee exports from Honduras have shown an upward trend. In 2006, the country's total coffee exports reached 3.8 million bags, generating income of 402 million US dollars. In 2007, the national coffee export reached 4.2 million bags, generating income of 470 million US dollars.

Coup in Honduras hits Coffee Export

President Manuel Zelaya was forced to die overseas in a bloodless coup in Honduras on June 28, 2009, and possible international sanctions have added uncertainty to the country's important coffee export industry.

Coffee farmers and exporters in Hongguo are worried that the international community may use economic sanctions to pressure Honduras to reinstate Seraya as president. Both the United States and the United Nations have condemned Hongguo's military coup. Economic sanctions could hurt Honduras's coffee exports, which are now 10% lower than in the same period last year.

Honduras is one of the top five Latin American exporters that produce high-quality Arabica coffee beans. The coffee export industry is also a major source of foreign exchange earnings for this poor country and an important pillar of income for Honduran residents.

According to the Honduran Coffee Association (Ihcafe), about 100000 Honduran families depend on growing coffee for a living, and the coffee industry directly or indirectly feeds one of the country's 7.8 million residents and employs 25 per cent of the rural workforce. Coffee farmers and exporters point out that Hongguo is quite calm at the moment, but the uncertain future makes them worry about whether coffee exports can proceed as usual.

Seraya followed in the footsteps of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez and other leftist Latin American strongmen, hoping to change the constitution and extend his term of office.

The Macro Constitution stipulates that the president shall serve a four-year term and shall not be re-elected, and Seraya's term of office will expire next year. He was originally scheduled to hold a referendum on constitutional amendment on the 28th, but was strongly boycotted by his own party and the military, and the Supreme Court ruled last week that the extension of the referendum was unconstitutional.

The Hongguo military entered the presidential palace on the 28th and sent Sera to the country by special plane. The Macedonian Congress then unanimously voted to allow Speaker Mitch to temporarily serve as president, and promised to hold a general election as scheduled. Mitch Bank announced a two-day curfew starting on the 28th.

Among the Chinese countries with a lot of bloodshed and civil war, Honduras is a quite peaceful country. The last military coup was in 1972. Many citizens of Hongguo do not approve of Selaya's constitutional amendment. "We really don't know what will happen next, but this president has really gone too far and abused his power," said Osato, a coffee farmer and former president of Ihcafe. "his referendum is basically limiting the power of the people."

According to Ihcafe's estimates, in the 2008-2009 harvest year ending June 15 this year, coffee production in Honduras decreased by 1.5% from the previous year to 2.907 million "packs", or 60 kg each. The coffee harvest year is from October to September, and Ihcafe estimates that coffee production this year will drop by 10% compared with the same period last year, to 3.373 million packets.

Selaya arrived in Nicaragua on the 28th by a special plane of his ally Chavez, claiming that he was still the president of Hongguo. Us Secretary of State Hillary Clinton echoed the statement of the Organization of American States, condemning the kidnapping.

Which is better, Honduran coffee or Jamaican coffee?

Jamaica belongs to the island and has the famous Blue Mountain Coffee, but the real Blue Mountain Coffee does not produce much, and most of them are counterfeit. It is generally believed that island beans have soft and meticulous sour taste, excellent thickness and texture, and fewer defective beans have better quality.

Honduras belongs to Central America, and I don't seem to have heard of the more famous coffee products. Most of Central and South America are washed beans with large output and all kinds of characteristics, but I'm talking about Central and South America. I haven't tried or heard of Honduras.

Personally, I think it's hard to say whether coffee is good or not, some people like sour ones, others like bitter ones, African beans, Asian beans, American beans, sea beans, island beans have their own personalities, and the ability of baking determines whether they can give full play to the characteristics of beans, which is very fun.
