„As expected, coffee had the greatest stem density in our plantations, although its contribution to the total basal area was relatively small because most stems were less than 3 cm DBH (Table 1). The predominant variety of coffee (Coffea arabica) in the shade plantations was the traditional "tipica" variety, although "catorra" predominated in some of the larger plantations and was used to replace "tipica" in some of the smaller plantations. The median maximum height of coffee in our plantations was 4.0 m, which defined the limit of the plantation understory.“

„The coffee crisis and a history of inequality conspire to keep them put. Most households earn a meager living often as little as a dollar a day picking coffee on the big plantations. Plantation owners can easily lock up 300-400 hectares, squeezing families into little more than their 50ft square plots. Don't believe the Malthusian population specialists who blame the poor for overpopulation and land degradation.“

„Sarah then introduced Celeste and Rey. Rey (a barista) had worked four months on several coffee plantations last year. He spoke about his life on the plantation, how he worked 20 to 30 days without a day off, how he carried 50 pound sacks on his back at the end of his workday (the hike to town took two to three hours while carrying 50 pounds on his back). He described his adobe home---no inside plumbing, no electricity, etc.“

„The amazing fact is that coffee habitat and nature bring out the best chemistry in sustaining each others needs. Many foreigners who visit the plantation remark that Indian coffee plantations are bird and game sanctuaries. The architectural detail of the coffee mountain is astounding.“

„Coffee labeled New Guinea usually comes fromPapua New Guinea, which occupies the eastern half of the island of New Guinea. Thesecoffees are grown in peasant patches and small plantations throughout the rugged mountainhighlands. The best New Guinea coffee is estate- or plantation-grown. In general, NewGuinea is a low-key version of the great Indonesian coffees: not as full-bodied as thebest Sumatra, less acidy and aromatic than the best Celebes, but a comfortably rich cup.Coffee marketed as Arona seems to be the currently preferred New Guinea coffee amongspecialty roasters.“
