Supply shocks and climate impacts
How supply shocks and climate change impacts disrupt the global coffee market, influencing availability, pricing, and long-term sustainability.
Flowering fruit
Soil testing and fertilization programs
This topic explains the role of soil testing in coffee farming, how fertilization programs are designed, and why balanced nutrient management is essential for productivity and quality.
Rainfall patterns and dry seasons
This topic explores how rainfall distribution and dry seasons affect coffee flowering, fruit development, and harvest cycles, and why water availability is critical to both yield and quality.
Water relations and drought tolerance
This topic explores how coffee plants manage water, how drought affects their physiology and productivity, and the strategies farmers use to improve resilience in water-limited environments.
Phenology: flowering, fruit set, maturation
This topic explains the phenological cycle of the coffee plant—how it flowers, sets fruit, and matures—and why these stages are critical for yield, quality, and farm management.
