For many of the rural settlers that moved to Apuí in the 1970s, conventional coffee plantations had very low productivity - 8 bags of coffee per hectare per year. With the IDESAM and WeForest coffee agroforestry systems, farmers can expect to double this. Marlucia D., who was already participating in coffee agroforestry with IDESAM, was able to expand her productive area by 0.5 ha in 2021 with WeForest’s support. On the left is a mature area of coffee agroforestry she established with IDESAM two years ago, and on the right, WeForest coffee seedlings planted just a few months ago.
