The aim of this activity is to provide knowledge and information to groups of farmers regarding the matters above, in order to increase coffee productivity. With a better understanding and knowledge of this matter, farmers are expected to be able to take appropriate steps to anticipate and adapt their cultivation techniques, so that it is hoped that Arabica coffee crop production can increase significantly.
