Brazil coffee sector development and research

Overview

The Brazilian coffee sector is seeing increased institutional support through new associations and technical research partnerships. In Rio Grande do Norte, the launch of the Association of Coffee Producers of the Serra de Santana (Acafes) and the creation of the ‘Grupo de Estudos Cafés RN’—a cooperation between Sebrae-RN and the Federal Rural University of the Semi-Arid (UFERSA)—aim to connect students with producers to study coffee adaptation to semi-arid conditions.

In Acre, the Federal University of Acre (Ufac) and Embrapa are discussing technical cooperation to strengthen production in the Juruá Valley, including the potential establishment of an Embrapa demonstration unit for high-productivity coffee clones. Additionally, a digital platform for biological inputs (bioinsumos) has been launched by Biotrop, the Federal University of Lavras (UFLA), and Embrapii to provide specialized information on managing pests, diseases, and sustainable cultivation strategies.
