Ecological quality as a coffee quality enhancer. A review. [PDF]

open access: yesAgron Sustain Dev, 2023
As both coffee quality and sustainability become increasingly important, there is growing interest in understanding how ecological quality affects coffee quality. Here we analyze, for the first time, the state of evidence that ecological quality, in terms of biodiversity and ecosystem functions, impacts the quality of Coffea arabica and C.
