Overview
This project aimed to improve economic returns to PNG smallholder coffee producers and the industry through delivering a more consistent and higher quality product.
Coffee is the second most important agricultural export crop in PNG. The smallholder sector generally produces fair average quality coffee (Y grade), which is consistently discounted against the New York “C” price. The main complaint from buyers is the inconsistency in quality from season-to-season and from shipment-to-shipment.
