@flirshk @JadaCoffee Farmers should try to drink their coffee. Most farmers don’t and that’s why with 1.7Milliom farmers in Uganda, our domestic consumption is still at 3%. I believe the players should be the first end user of their product.

[Flaviah Koyesiga @flirshk]

@jackiearinda @JadaCoffee Thank you for representing women in coffee and especially for the great work you are doing to promote consumption of Uganda Coffee.
Could you share your thoughts on how other coffee industry players can also influence consumer behavior on the consumption of Uganda coffee.

Proud to witness smallholder coffee farmers from Kapchorwa, #Uganda among them #women and #youth showcasing - through a play - the benefits they have accrued from #agroforestry. In their words and acts, they have articulated the challenges they face due to the changing #climate

1/2 #CarbonFarming is a game changer for coffee farmers and communities! Integrating trees in our coffee systems will not only benefit the individual farmers, it will conserve our environment & benefit the larger community. @kithuka_stephen

#CoffeePrices: This week's farmgate price range in UGX/Kilo by coffee category:
Kiboko 2,500-3,000
FAQ 6,700-7,300
Arabica Parchment 8,500-9,500
Drugar (Clean) 7,500-8,500

Good practices result in more complex & unique sensory profiles, in turn earning farmers more.
