- M_Grey 10y agoThen you should have no problem showing me that link, obvious as you claim it to be.
- ars 10y agoPolitical instability encourages short term thinking/planning, since long term is too risky. The fastest way to make money from coffee is aid agencies. If there was more long term thinking then the actual coffee would be a better way to make money. If there was no aid then ??? I'm not sure - either they would abandon coffee entirely, or they would be forced to actually try to grow coffee.
- M_Grey 10y agoIf your long term thinking indicates that you need to grow the food you need to eat, that year, then how does coffee or aid enter the equation at all?
- ars 10y agoMost food is grown on a single year basis - grow that year, eat that year. Coffee is a tree it takes many many years to grow and develop. It's quicker to "harvest" money from aid agencies. PS. Your reply is very strange, since the answer to your question is quite obvious. Are you actually trying to get info, or are you trying to push the message you desire via questions?
- M_Grey 10y agoI'm just hung up on the fairly large, and unsupported claim, "The fastest way to make money from coffee is aid agencies." Beyond that, to be blunt, I'm just not buying the fairly clumsy and shoehorned ideological narrative presented in the piece, especially when it explains the issues raised without actually needing to explain it in terms of abusing charity.
