"We decided to break this' convention 'this year. Come up with hundreds of millions of yuan and quote only on the basis of the New York futures price minus transportation costs. " Xiong Xiangren said that the cost of growing coffee for Yunnan coffee farmers is between 13 and 14 yuan / kg. If enterprises transfer land and hire workers, the cost price should be about 16 yuan per kilogram. Too low price is bound to dampen the enthusiasm of the vast number of farmers. To this end, Hougu Coffee will also promise that the first-class Yunnan coffee beans will never be less than 15 yuan / kg to buy.

After the coffee fruit is picked, it needs to be selected and processed: peeling, degumming and drying. Then the shell beans will be shelled and baked. Get coffee beans that we can drink every day.

One after another, foreign businessmen have come to Yunnan, China to visit plantations and processing plants. CEO, one of the well-known companies, told the interviewer: Chinese coffee, when it is on the tree, is this (he puts his thumb up). But after picking it, it was this (he put his thumb down). In fact, the key links in the post-harvest processing of coffee are no more troublesome than cooking on fire. As long as you strictly follow those steps and do not play smart, you can do a good job.

Like Sudan red and meat essence, there are ripening agents in the field of coffee. The coffee fruit is still green and turns red with a spray. Take it and sell it to the merchant. When we are in the sun, we should often turn it over. We are lazy and do not turn it over. Others take it back and make coffee, which tastes terrible when tested. A low score will drag down the whole batch of beans, or even the entire producing area, which can only lower the price. The price is getting lower and lower in this way. Word of mouth is like this, and it is getting worse and worse.

Participants in the Yunnan coffee industry should form a consensus and join forces for the common coffee cause to stabilize the development foundation of Yunnan coffee industry, so that Yunnan coffee will no longer be sold cheaply.
