For many years coffee prices have been very low, smaller farmers have had difficult time to make enough
profit. After their expenses there was not enough money to pay bills and feed their families.

Farmers have many new challenges every year that they have to contend with. The coffee farmers work hard and are able to produce a good crop of coffee with limited resources many times.
I appreciate being able to spend time talking to the farmers and listen to their stories. One man showed me the old Diesel engine he bought which now he can make electric to power his washing station that he installed two years ago. With his own electric power, He is able to do custom work for small area farmers now.
Shipments are slow in arriving to US ports. Trucking is a huge problem around the world,
