Peruvian coffee and cocoa producers now have access to better financing opportunities, thanks to the partnership between MOCCA and the Peruvian Ministry of Agrarian Development and Irrigation (MIDAGRI).
Husband and wife coffee growers José Salazar and Jesús Rodríguez have reduced the incidence of coffee berry borer in their coffee plantation by implementing the good pest management and residue management practices learned at MOCCA.
CEPROAA connected with TCHO, a U.S. company which in 2022 placed a first order of 12 tons of cacao and by 2023 has already reached 50 tons.
The Alianza Café and MOCCA projects, both led by TechnoServe, are promoting the use of Vetiver in Peru for the treatment of coffee honey water, which represents 25% of the post-harvest contaminant load and which, if left untreated, threatens coffee farm ecosystems.
