Answer:
1. World production. At least 20 to 25 million families around the world make a living from growing coffee. With an assumed average family size of five people, more than 100 million people are dependent on coffee growing. A total of 10.3 million tons of green coffee were harvested worldwide in 2018.
2. Crops are exposed to higher temperatures which many can endure. But it's the increase in extremely hot days (and warm nights) that can cause the most damage. The threat of changing rainfall seasons leading to shifting rainfall dates plays havoc with planting dates and crop management.
3. The Fairtrade Foundation launches a virtual festival to highlight how the climate crisis is affecting the future of food and those who produce it.
The Fairtrade Fortnight 2021 will take place from 22 February – 7 March and the ‘Choose the World You Want Festival‘ will feature a series of virtual events designed to engage, inform and educate people around the urgent message of Fairtrade and climate change.
4. The academy aims to increase farmers' resilience to the effects of climate change by systematically training them and implementing insights, skills and techniques that will enable them to better adapt.
5. In addition to some growing interest in using manure for energy production, farmers are monetizing manure in the form of organic fertilizers that can be shipped around the country. According to the USDA, the poop from poultry and cattle feedlots is drier than that from dairy or hog farms.
6. When you choose Fairtrade coffee, not only can farmers build a better quality of life for their families and communities, they can invest in growing better quality beans too. Fairtrade coffee farmers invest at least 25 percent of their Fairtrade Premium in improving productivity and quality.
