Honduras backs regional strategy for coffee

Monday 11 February, 2019


Honduras, the region's leading coffee producer has joined the rest of Central America and the Dominican Republic in PERcafé, a strategic program that aims to confront the serious problems facing the sector.

"With this initiative, the aim is to meet the current challenges facing production, such as the low prices in the international markets, climate change, the age of the plants, lack of manpower, and the advance of plagues that afflict crops," said the InterAmerican Institute for Cooperation in Agriculture.

Publication of the final document of PERcafé is due to be published at the end of next month.
