Last week in Honduras, we completed a workshop on the safe use and handling of agrochemicals!
Together with AHsafe, we trained Initiative for coffee&climate extension staff so they can replicate and transfer learnings to smallholder families in the region!
¡En Vivo! Lanzamiento de nuestra Estrategia de Diversificación y Sostenibilidad como parte del proyecto EUROCLIMA+ junto al Instituto Hondureño del Café.
Organic waste generated from coffee production has underestimated potentials! When managed and treated appropriately, it can support the productivity of coffee farms, reduce the use of agrochemicals, protect natural resource and carry out new business opportunities for coffee farming families. ♻️🌱👩🌾💡
Our new project together with Melitta Group in Minas Gerais, Brazil, aims to do just that; identify the steps involved to reuse and recycle organic waste to create a circular economy in coffee production that brings huge possibilities for both coffee farming families, the environment and the coffee sector as a whole.
