Sustainability.

"Sustainability" is an old topic in the boutique coffee industry, but most coffee companies still want to buy the best coffee at the lowest price, which is not sustainable for local growers. What can we do to solve this problem?

First of all, we need to understand one thing: for most Burundian families, they do not use the money earned from coffee to buy the most basic needs of life, such as food. They grow all the food in their own yard. On average, each family earns just $100 a year, which is usually spent on oil, home maintenance and tuition fees. Traceability is a common problem for coffee growers, raw bean buyers and coffee roasters. There are currently about 3500 families working for LMCP. Production harvesting areas are distributed on eight different hilltops and two processing plants-Bukeye (operational in 2013) and Heza (operational in 2014). There are many variables that affect the quality of the final beans. For example, each mountain has a different microclimate, which in turn affects the growth, picking and handling of coffee fruits, and varies from day to day. Nathan James Johnston, the boss of Cartel Coffee Roasters in Australia, said: "working with Long Miles, we can know exactly where, when and who picked the coffee, which means a lot to us.

The national flag of Burundi is rectangular and the ratio of length to width is 5:3. Two crossed white wide stripes divide the flag into four triangles, the upper and lower two are equal in red, and the left and right two are equal in green. In the center of the flag is a white circle with three red hexagonal stars with green edges in a zigzag arrangement. Red symbolizes the blood of the victims fighting for freedom, green symbolizes the desired progressive cause, and white symbolizes the existence of peace among human beings. The three stars symbolize "unity, labor and progress". At the same time, they also represent the three tribes of Burundi-Hutu, Tutsi and Twa-who live in peace with each other and build their homeland. The Burundian state is a democratic presidential system. On November 1, 2001, the transitional government was established, Buyoya became president for the first 18 months of the transition period, and Ndayizeye, former general secretary of PFDJ and Hutu, served as vice president. On April 30th, according to the Arusha agreement, the transfer of power was carried out smoothly, Ndayizeye took over as president, and Kadege, a Tutsi, became vice president, and the transition period entered the second stage smoothly. In November, the Brazilian government and the largest rebel Forces for the Defence of Democracy (FDD) signed a package of peace agreements, and FDD joined the transitional government, making significant progress in the peace process. From June to August 2005, local, legislative and presidential elections were successfully held. FDD won 63%, 55% and 88% of the seats in the local, national assembly and Senate elections respectively, becoming the ruling party. Its leader Nkurunziza was elected president, took office on August 26th, and then formed a new government. On September 7, 2006, the Brazilian government signed a comprehensive ceasefire agreement with the last rebel National Liberation Front (FNL). However, negotiations on the implementation of the agreement have repeatedly reached an impasse. In April 2008, a large-scale exchange of fire broke out between the two sides. In May, under the active mediation of the international community,
