What season are coffee beans grown and when do they ripen?

Coffee beans are the fruit of the coffee tree that is sold by hand. After a 3-5 year growth period, the coffee trees are ripe and begin to bear fruit, and the fruits are lined up in bunches or clusters along the branches.

Most Arabica beans ripen from June to August, while Robusta beans ripen from September to October. Therefore, although in some countries where the wet and dry seasons are not obvious, such as Colombia and Kenya, there are two flowering periods a year, that is, there are two large and small harvests, but strictly speaking, there is only one harvest a year.

The harvest period varies depending on the region. Areas north of the equator (e.g. Ethiopia and Central America) generally have one harvest call in September-November. South of the equator, such as Brazil and Zimbabwe, the harvest lasts until August, but the main harvest is in April or May.

Equatorial countries, such as Uganda and Colombia, harvest year-round, especially those that take advantage of a variety of different altitudes. As a result, there is likely to be a new harvest of coffee beans at most times of the year.

Yunnan coffee beans ripen in October-December.

Not all places are suitable for growing coffee.

1. Climate, tropical, direct sunlight all year round.

It has abundant heat and abundant rainfall, with an average annual temperature of more than 20 degrees Celsius and a rainfall of 1500-2000 mm.

Some are not tolerant to high temperatures and humidity, so they are planted at higher altitudes, and if the light is too strong, they also need to be shaded, hence the name "rainforest coffee".

2. Topography, on the slope of the mountain with a relatively high altitude, because the coffee tree is not suitable for growing on the cold current channel, the slope is open to the south, and the slope without frost and quiet wind in winter is the first choice for planting. However, the slope is generally less than 30 slopes, otherwise the slope is too steep, which is not conducive to planting, harvesting, and fertilizer preservation. The coffee grown in Yunnan, China, emphasizes that the slope is less than 25 degrees.

It should not be grown on the top of mountains and ridges.

3. Soil conditions, volcanic soil or forest soil, coffee trees are shallow root plants, which require soil rich in organic matter (and strong fertility), abundant water vapor (and smooth drainage), and deep soil layer (usually more than 1 meter).

Weakly acidic (for example, the pH of the soil in Yunnan, China).

1.Time: If you want to plant coffee trees, you should choose a good time first, usually April is more suitable every year, when the climate is more conducive to seed germination. In general, as long as the temperature is at 15-20....

2.Potting soil: You can choose a relatively small pot when you first start planting, and there is no need to use a large pot. There are no high requirements for soil, and the garden soil we often see can be used.

3.Seed selection: Select the coffee beans to be planted and use, and use a clean knife to make a cut in them to remove the outermost outer skin. Put it in lukewarm water without impurities, soak it for a day, and then put it in wet...

The best sowing time for coffee is during the spring Qingming to Guyu in the spring of each year, the spring in northern China comes late, the sowing time should also be advanced, the best spring in May, the temperature is the best at 15-20 degrees Celsius, according to the actual situation of each city to choose the best sowing time, can not be selected according to the recommended time on the Internet, planting early or late, will affect the germination rate of seeds, and the later plant growth status.

How many catties of an acre of land yield.

The yield depends on the management and the age of the tree, the tree is large and the management is in place The yield is high, the amplitude is large, the fresh product per plant is 20-100 catties, and the drying rate is 5-8:1.

Plains, hillsides, wastelands, front and back of houses, and forest fruit tree seedlings can be planted, but it is not suitable to be planted in tall trees or other unventilated places. Herbal coffee does not like large water and fertilizer, conditional planting can use farmhouse fertilizer, during the growth period in case of drought watering 1-2 times of water is the best, absolutely not allowed to use all kinds of fertilizers and herbicides.

Coffee beans can be grown in all seasons, so it depends on the place, but I personally feel that there are more in autumn.

Yes, the domestic coffee bean cultivation is mainly in Yunnan Province.

Yunnan Province's coffee planting area and production account for more than 99% of China's total, affected by the international market, after more than two years of "cold winter", the purchase price of coffee beans soared in 2014, from 13 yuan per kilogram to 25 yuan.

Coffee beans were consumed by the earliest Arabs by chewing the whole fruit (coffee cherry) to absorb its juice. They then mixed ground coffee beans with animal fat as a stamina supplement for long journeys, and it wasn't until about 1,000 AD that green coffee beans were boiled in boiling water to become an aromatic drink.

Coffee is popular all over the world for its strange flavor and refreshing effects. According to their characteristics, coffee beans in the world can be divided into two main categories, namely Arabica and Robusta.

Arabica is also known as high-altitude coffee or small-fruited coffee, it grows at high altitudes, is a traditional Arabic coffee variety, native to East Africa, in the early 15th century, coffee has long been controlled by Arabia, so Europeans call it "Arabica coffee". Arabica coffee beans account for about 75% of all coffee bean production and are cultivated in various regions, this coffee is not resistant to pests and is not easy to cultivate, but it has a higher taste and coffee content than Robert's coffee, and its value is higher than that of Robert's coffee.

Originally, there was only one type of coffee, Arabica, but at the end of the 19th century, a major pest and disease occurred, and coffee growers began to search for coffee varieties that were resistant to pests and diseases, and Robert's coffee was born. Robert's coffee is grown at low altitudes, has the characteristics of disease and pest resistance, cold resistance, drought tolerance, but the taste is relatively bitter, and is generally the preferred material for instant coffee.
