A large amount of coffee production (95%) is done by small shareholders, with an average yield of 561 kg per hectare. For centuries, minority holders of Ethiopian coffee farms have been producing a variety of high-quality types of coffee. The secret to producing high-quality coffee is that coffee growers have developed a coffee culture in a suitable environment through generations of repeated learning about the coffee growing process, which mainly includes farming methods using natural fertilizers, picking the reddest and fully ripe fruits and processing the fruits in a clean environment. The differences in the quality, natural characteristics and types of Ethiopian coffee all stem from differences in "altitude", "region", "location" and even land types. Ethiopian coffee beans are unique due to their natural characteristics, including "size", "shape", "acidity", "quality", "flavor" and "flavor". These characteristics give Ethiopian coffee a unique natural quality, usually, Ethiopia is always used as a "coffee supermarket" for customers to choose the kind of coffee they like. Villages that grow coffee on a large scale account for about 35% of the country's total coffee production. These coffee farms, which use a multi-tier coffee planting system, are carefully cared for. Coffee farmers do not use chemical fertilizers, but use fallen leaves and animal and plant debris to increase soil nutrition. In addition to coffee, farmers also frequently grow non-coffee crops. Even manor coffee (coffee produced by state farms), which accounts for 5 per cent of the country's total coffee production, shows the characteristics of forest coffee production in the southwestern highlands of Ethiopia, and the Kaffa, Sheka, Gera, Limu and Yayu Senri coffee ecosystems are considered the home of Arabica coffee. These forest ecosystems also have a variety of medicinal plants, wildlife and endangered species-this kind of coffee grows in areas ranging from 1400 to 1800 meters above sea level.
