As you said it's a huge dilemma. I will keep it as green as possible, even if it cuts production by a big percentage. I'd rather have it fail that be not environmentally friendly. My life does not depend on it, I can afford to fail and that is why I want to try. I can hire people, labors are cheap where I live so that won't be a problem. A partner is fine if competent enough I guess. For now the goal is to break even, If I can achieve that it will be win already.
- workbytaylor 4y agoWorld coffee research may be a good place for you to learn about coffee farming in the 21st century. Another commenter mentioned you won't be able to farm the old ways, and WCR could support you going forward. At the very least they could point you in the right direction to get started, and maybe even know someone you could hire. https://worldcoffeeresearch.org/ https://worldcoffeeresearch.org/

My life does not depend on it, I can afford to fail and that is why I want to try. I'm skeptical that you're in a position where you can afford to fail, short of edge cases like "I just let the land lie fallow and pump no money whatsoever into it" or "I am a multi-millionaire already without the plantation".
- tsingy 4y agoMy life does not depend on it, so if it fails, I will lose money for sure but that's fine, won't be the first nor the last time. Labor is cheap and I want to try.
