Hawaii Coffee Association (#)
„"We already have the worlds best tasting coffee, and the worlds healthiest coffee trees", stated Sheppard. "According to its' own website the Hawaii Department of Agriculture's Plant Quarantine Program began over a hundred years ago when, in 1888, King David Kalakaua decreed that in order to protect the coffee industry in Hawaii, new coffee plants would not be allowed into the islands. This protection has resulted in us having the only 100 year old trees still producing coffee; all other coffee growing areas are riddled with disease and pests. We would be better served by our scientists continuing to keep invasive pests and diseases out of our islands, than on introducing varieties that put us at risk".“

„Plant quarantine has expressed the position that the current regulations are effective. No phaseout of methyl bromide for quarantine treatment although it will be phased out for ground application. A motion made to say that "The Hawaii Coffee Association does not support House Resolution 49 - Banning the importation of green coffee into Hawaii, as we feel the current fumigation procedures are effective. We do not support any changes to the current rules regarding the importation of green coffee.“
