Introduction to the planting environment of Rwanda boutique coffee bean flavor manor with excellent evenness

Rwanda has tin, tungsten, niobium, tantalum, Beryl, gold and so on. The storage of tin is about 100000 tons. Peat reserves are estimated at 30 million tons. Lake Kivu has natural gas reserves of about 60 billion cubic meters. The Niagabango tungsten deposit is the largest tungsten mine in Africa.

Forest

The forest area is about 620000 hectares, accounting for 29 per cent of the country's area, and is one of the important natural resources of Rwanda. [3]

Botany

In prehistoric times, 1/3 of Rwanda belonged to mountain ecology. Naturally occurring plants have been basically confined to the country's three national parks, while terraced agriculture is dominant in other parts of the country. The Newgway Forest is the largest forest in existence, with 200 tree species, orchids and begonia. The plants in Rwanda Volcano National Park are dominated by bamboo, and most of the rest are moorlands and small areas of trees. Akagera National Park belongs to the savanna ecosystem, and Acacia has the largest number of plants. [3]

Animal

There are also some rare or endangered plant species in Rwanda National Park, such as cat tail tree and Guinean cocktail orchid. The largest number of large mammal species are also found in the three national parks, all of which are designated reserves. Akagera National Park is home to typical savanna animals, including giraffes and elephants, while Volcano National Park is home to about 1/3 mountain gorillas in the world. Newgway Forest Park has 13 species of primates, including chimpanzees and Ruwenzori arboreal colobus monkeys, of which as many as 400 engage in group activities, more than any other primate in Africa. [3]

There are 670 species of birds living in Rwanda, which vary from east to west. 280 species have been found in the west Newgway Forest, including 26 species endemic to the Aberdeen Rift Valley, including Ruwenzori rhododendron and colourful partridges. Eastern Rwanda has savanna birds such as Aconitum Black Shrike, as well as species used to living in swamps and lakes, such as storks and cranes.

Rwanda has been growing coffee since colonial times. Although the crops are mainly coffee, the quality of coffee produced in Rwanda is not outstanding, and its status in the coffee world is low, and few people pay attention to it. Most of the coffee varieties grown in Rwanda are bourbon. Rwanda, known as the "country of a thousand hills", has a high-altitude mountain environment, fertile volcanic soil and abundant precipitation, and has a climate conducive to the growth of coffee trees. The advantages of varieties and excellent natural conditions should have produced high-quality coffee, but why the quality of its coffee performance is not satisfactory? The reason lies in the later stage of processing. Improper handling will reduce the quality of coffee and sacrifice a lot of good flavor in vain. Harvesting, planting, treatment, grading, transportation and other links will directly affect the quality of raw coffee beans, in which the lack of control in a certain link will become a stumbling block to good coffee.

The coffee fruit needs to be transported to the processing plant as soon as possible after picking, but due to the lack of domestic facilities, it is unable to deal with the fruit at the first time. The fruits are piled up after being picked, which will continue to develop and accelerate mildew and decay due to lack of ventilation. Rotten fruits will affect the quality of coffee and show defective flavor.

In recent years, Rwanda has made great progress in the production and processing of coffee. First of all, coffee fruits are picked manually; coffee production cooperatives have been set up all over the country to provide technical guidance to coffee farmers; coffee farmers send them to coffee processing stations for cleaning and screening as soon as possible after picking, and select ripe and high quality coffee fruits for processing. Rwanda Coffee is absolutely high quality in the form of its washed Arabica beans. As far as Africa is concerned, its coffee industry is remarkable because the country thrives mainly by producing the best possible coffee beans. Coffee from Rwanda is becoming more and more popular in the international market.

The mission of the Rwanda Coffee Association is to manage and supervise the operation of the coffee industry in Rwanda from production to sale. The recently revised mission focuses on policy formulation and implementation, with more emphasis on the need to improve the professionalism of the coffee industry and to increase marketing efforts. Since the establishment of the Rwanda Coffee Association, it has promoted the Rwandan coffee culture and promoted the influence of Rwandan coffee.
