According to estimates by the UNESCO Water Resources Department, a cup of coffee in our hands consumes 39 gallons of water (147 liters) to produce. The climate change that is taking place today has in turn made the coffee-growing industry a vulnerable victim. The more unstable the environment, the more difficult it is for farmers to obtain stable yields and the inability to effectively organize production, and as the planet becomes warmer, it also intensifies the emergence of microbial infectious diseases that infect coffee crops.
Coffee farming may face unsustainability
In Brazil, where the Amazon rainforest covers the largest area in the world, the past year was the highest in Brazil for 15 years of economic deforestation (deforestation) for planting and animal husbandry. Cattle raising, palm oil, coffee beans, and cocoa nuts are all major industries that cause deforestation, but our good fortune and the livelihoods of millions of people also depend on this.The flourishing specialty coffee industry in the global metropolis ultimately failed to allow millions of small farmers in the upper reaches of agriculture to obtain sufficient benefits, which continued to aggravate the problem of "economic income inequality".
To improve the sustainability of the coffee industry, in the main coffee producing areas, governments and non-governmental organizations in some countries encourage coffee farmers to plan their production more orderly, and plant some wild coffee cherries.
