Last Updated: 2024/09/19, In the following two centuries, the economic development of Angola was slow. At that time, although the Portuguese were also committed to developing agricultural production in Angola, the main income of the Angolan colonies at that time depended on the slave trade to Brazil, which was not abolished until 1830. It was not until the late 19th century that Angola's economy turned inland, and the Portuguese began to accumulate.

It was not until the late 19th century that Angola's economy turned inland, and the Portuguese began to actively develop agricultural and underground mineral resources. During World War I, Angola was attacked by German troops from South Africa. Because of the persistence of the Portuguese, they were not ravaged by the Germans.

The Angolan government is currently working on a development plan to revitalize coffee production in order to restore coffee production across the country to the level of the 1970s.

Manuel Diaz, director of the Angolan Coffee Agency, recently told the local press that the Angolan government's plan mainly includes expanding growing areas, increasing investment, working hard to support coffee farmers and promoting fine varieties.

The provinces of Uige, Bengo, Kwanza Sul and Kwanza Norte are traditional coffee growing areas in Angola. In order to expand the area of coffee cultivation, the Angolan government has decided to make efforts to develop coffee production in other provinces, particularly in Huambo in the central plateau, Biemalange and Villa in the south.

The Angolan government has also decided to promote improved varieties of coffee according to local conditions. According to information released by the Angolan Coffee Agency, fine coffee is more suitable for cultivation in most provinces of Angola and is the first choice for large-scale promotion by the government. At the same time, Angola will also introduce coffee seeds from Brazil and Costa Rica.

According to officials, Angola's coffee production is expected to reach 4000 tons in 2006, an increase of 34 percent over 2005.

Coffee production increased by 1000 tons between 2005 and 2006, with coffee production in the provinces of Kwanza Sul, Bengo, Kwanza Norte and Uige.

Angola exports around 2000 tons of commercial Robasda coffee each year, with Portugal and Spain as the preferred export markets.

Gilberto, Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development of Angola? Lutukata called on coffee growers to form cooperatives to get loans.

"We recognize that coffee growers are facing financial difficulties and we are actively negotiating with financial institutions to provide credit to growers," Lutukata said in the city of Gabella in Kwanza Sul province.

Lutukata said that the country needed to invest in infrastructure and production areas so that Angola could "become one of the largest coffee growers and exporters."

In the 1970s, Angola produced about 180000 tons of commercial coffee per year.

Uige province has a coffee planting area of 161000 hectares and an annual output of 99550 tons, making it the largest coffee growing province. This was followed by Kwanza Sul province, with a planting area of 120000 hectares and a yield of 81807 tons.

Angola is expected to become a big coffee producer again.

In 1575, the Portuguese began to occupy the area south of the Congo and established the city of Luanda. At the same time, they conquered several indigenous tribes, causing the whites to slowly emigrate to Angola. Over the next 50 years, the Portuguese gradually expanded their territory. In 1617, Portugal established the city of Benguela in Angola, which became more stable and confirmed Portugal's position in Angola from then on. From 1640 to 1648, the Dutch captured some important ports here, which were later recaptured by the Portuguese. [1]
