Last Updated: 2024/09/20, Because of the excellent quality of Yunnan coffee, Lujiang No.1 entered the London market in the 1960s and was rated as a first-class product. In recent years, world-famous coffee companies such as Nestle and Mai's have come to Yunnan to open up raw material bases, and Yunnan's products have gradually gained popularity at home and abroad. At present, the average yield of coffee in Yunnan Province has reached 964 kg, and a family contracted land in Lujiang has reached 40 kg.

Due to the excellent quality of Yunnan coffee, it entered the London market with "Lujiang No.1" in the 1960s and was rated as first-class. In recent years, the world-famous coffee companies such as Nestle and McDonnell have come to Yunnan to open up raw material bases, and the products produced in Yunnan are also gradually famous at home and abroad. At present, the average yield of coffee in Yunnan has reached 96.4 kg, and a household contracted land in Lujiang has set a world record of 400 kg. After visiting the coffee garden of Lujiang Farm, Steyhead, a chief coffee expert of the United Nations Planning and Development Program, said: "I have seen countless coffee plantations in the world. The management here is world-class and the yield per unit area is the highest.

Yunnan coffee is a variant of Arabian original species, which has been cultivated for more than one hundred years after long-term cultivation and domestication. Due to the unique geographical environment and climatic conditions, Yunnan coffee has formed a unique flavor of strong but not bitter, fragrant but not strong, with a little fruit flavor. World-class coffee experts evaluate it as the best coffee in the world, and its cultivation techniques. The yield per unit area is also world-class. The quality of coffee depends on many factors, such as growing environment, climate, cultivation and management techniques and so on. Its best growing environment is low latitude, high altitude, sufficient rainfall and suitable sunshine, so the north latitude is 15. The ideal growing area for coffee is between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Cancer. However, other areas in this zone, such as Hawaii and Saudi Arabia in the United States, or low altitude or little rain in the desert, are not conducive to coffee growth, only southern Yunnan in this zone happens to have all kinds of conditions. According to the determination of experts, small seed coffee should be planted in the mountains at an altitude of 800 to 1800 meters. If the altitude is too high, it will taste sour, and if it is too low, it will taste bitter. The planted land needs a certain slope, otherwise the quality of the coffee is slightly worse, and there are many diseases.

Pu'er, Xishuangbanna, Wenshan, Baoshan, Dehong, Lincang and other places in the south and west of Yunnan are all the distribution areas of small-grain coffee in Yunnan. As of January 1, 2012, according to the comprehensive survey of Yunnan Province, the planting area of coffee in Yunnan has exceeded 800000 mu, and the output of coffee beans in this period is expected to exceed 55000 tons. For the future, local governments in Yunnan have also drawn a blueprint: Dehong is planning to expand the coffee planting area from the current 100000 mu to 200000 mu in the next few years; Lincang plans to expand the existing 20, 000-mu coffee forest by 10 times to 200000 mu in the 12th five-year Plan; and Pu'er also plans to expand the 220000 mu coffee forest to 600000 mu. Other areas suitable for coffee cultivation, such as Baoshan and Xishuangbanna, are also planning to expand the planting scale. Yunnan Coffee Network is the only professional coffee website that comprehensively introduces the information and culture of coffee in Yunnan and the cultivation, production, processing, consumption and other links of the coffee production chain. the weekly coffee quotation offered by this website is currently the price of coffee raw beans with the longest duration and the most reference transactions in China.

Berries broadly elliptic, red, 12-16 mm long, 10-12 mm in diameter, exocarp dura, mesocarp fleshy, sweet at maturity; seeds raised abaxially, ventral flat, longitudinally grooved, 8-10 mm long and 5-7 mm in diam. Florescence from March to April

Cutting materials with straight branches, can not use a branch, because a branch cuttings after the new plant can only grow creeping, can not grow into a straight coffee tree. Cuttings should be cut with green uncorked, fully aged leaves, robust straight terminal buds at the bottom of paragraphs 2-3, not semi-corked and corked straight branches. The leaves of cuttings are four inches wide (about 6-8 cm), and each section of cuttings is 4-6 cm long. The cuttings are cut into two pieces, each with a blade, and the cut is oblique and smooth.

The slotting machine generally uses a sand bed with a thickness of 40-50 cm, with coarse sand in the lower part and medium fine sand in the upper part. The shade degree of the slotting bed should be 80-90%. Wash the sand first when using it, or you can mix it with the coconut bran of 1 stroke 2. Using spray equipment, the rooting rate of cuttings is high, but the cost of equipment purchase is high.

The cuttings can be cut obliquely or directly, and the cutting depth is buried at the leaf node. 10-15 cm in a row, with the leaves not covering each other as the standard. Fully sprinkle with water after insertion to make the cuttings in close contact with the sand. After cutting, plastic film should be covered on the cutting bed to reduce water evaporation and improve the rooting rate of cuttings. When covering the plastic film, it should be arched with iron wire or bamboo, inserted on the edge of the sand bed, and then covered with the plastic film, and then pressed to maintain the humidity in the bed. If you use spray equipment, you don't have to cover plastic film.

Yunnan coffee is mostly planted in dry and hot valleys at an altitude of 1100 meters above sea level, so it has a moderate sour taste, rich and mellow aroma. In terms of climatic conditions, the long light time in southern Yunnan is conducive to plant growth and photosynthesis, and the large temperature difference between day and night and low temperature at night are conducive to the accumulation of coffee nutrients. Therefore, the effective nutrients of Yunnan small-grain coffee are higher than those of other foreign coffee varieties. Small seed coffee is easy to be infected with rust, and the yield and quality of embroidery disease are deeply affected. In the hot area of Yunnan, due to the distinct dry and wet, the red ripening of fresh fruit enters the dry season every year, and the relative humidity is low, which is not conducive to the formation and growth of rust blister.
