[edit]Effects of organic coffee on the environment
[edit]Shade use and reforestation are aspects of the organic agricultural production of coffee that promotes healthy environmental effects. Due to the influence of these factors on climate vulnerability and carbon stocks, there are collaboration aspects that align with climate change adaptation and mitigation .[1] Afforestation in areas high in coffee agroforestry has shown positive results, including finance possibilities through carbon offsetting, insetting, and footprint reductions. [1]Technical assistance and capacity building are other low-cost benefits that help bolster this collaboration. [1]
Pricing of organic coffee
[edit]There is a high demand for organic coffee, especially in North America, Western Europe, and Japan, where the demand is higher than the supply.[2] This among the expensive certification are some of the contributing factors to the higher price tag of organic coffee.
The economic factors that affect pricing of organic coffee are questionable to some. There is an argument about a large amount of injustice in the production of organic coffee due to the strenuous work done by those who grow and harvest coffee beans and what the consumer receives.[2] Relating to this, there is also debate surrounding organic farming as a whole. An example of why people do not agree with organic farming, specifically organic coffee farming is grand amounts of organic compost that are required to meet the nutrient requirements.
The higher price tag of organic coffee can be attributed to many varying factors, one of which is ethical concern. A study done in South Korea used the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) to assess what motives were behind the choice of organic coffee and explored the concern for ethics here.[3] The findings of this study showed that consumers purchased with the protection of health and environmental factors in mind.
