Day 1, of coffee crop preparation involves ploughing the land to break up the soil, improve aeration, and enhance nutrient mixing. The sound of machinery fills the air as rich soil is turned over, creating a fertile environment for planting. This foundational step sets the stage for a successful coffee growing season.
Day 2, the focus shifts to soil amendments and finalizing the planting layout. Farmers assess the nutrient levels in the soil, adding fertilizers or organic matter to enrich the ground further. This step ensures that the coffee plants will have access to essential nutrients as they grow.
Day 3, the excitement builds as planting begins. Farmers prepare young coffee seedlings, carefully selecting the healthiest ones for transplantation. Each seedling is placed in pre-dug holes, ensuring proper depth and spacing to promote robust growth. As the sun rises higher, the team works diligently, planting row by row. Watering follows closely to help the seedlings settle into their new home. The fields transform into neat rows of vibrant green, marking the start of a new coffee crop season and the promise of future harvests.
