Invisible Communications in Coffee Plantations (INeedCoffee.com) (#)
„For example in our 100 hectare plantation, coffee blocks thickly populated with erythrina, red & white cedar, jack, eugelina jamboolina, ficus gobbaraneralu, soobabul, the coffee plants appear very healthy, the leaf color evergreen, big in size, good and uniform fruit set and mature beans and negligible pest and disease incidence. Essentially the coffee plant shows extraordinarily powerful defense mechanisms against pest and disease incidence. On the contrary coffee blocks having predominantly silveroak,, mesopsis, mangium, eucalyptus, acasia, Mahagony, rosewood, nandi, the plants lack vigor and are more prone to pest and disease incidence. The probable reason for this is that the above mentioned tree species have a large amount of phenolics in their leaf and the leaflitter at the base of the coffee plant accumulates toxic amounts of phenolics .“

Tea & Coffee 09/04 - The Aromatic Coffees of India
„Coffee grows in India at medium to moderately high altitudes on the slopes of the mountain ranges called the Western Ghats, only under shade. Varied and exotic trees such as the Rosewood, Ficus, Red and White Cedars, besides the evergreen Jungle trees can be seen growing at definite intervals on the coffee plantations. There is a scientific ratio to the number of shade trees that should be grown and retained on a hectare of land area, thus providing filtered sunshine, organic mulch, a natural barrier to pests and diseases, and a habitat to birds and animals and at the same time preserving the ecology of the region.“
