Coffee Farming with EM® Technology

Key Results

• Disease Drop: 89-93% reduction in CBD & CLR.
• Yield Boost: +1.12 kg cherries per tree.
• Input Cost: Reduced need for synthetic fungicides.

Step 1: Soil Preparation

Apply <strong>1-3 tons/ha</strong> of <strong>EM® Bokashi</strong> (fermented coffee pulp or manure) into planting basins or around the drip line. This builds organic matter and beneficial fungi.

Step 2: Foliar Maintenance

Spray a <strong>1-2% solution</strong> of EM-1® (activated with molasses) onto foliage every <strong>2-3 weeks</strong>. This colonizes leaves with beneficial microbes, physically blocking pathogens like Rust.

Step 3: Waste Recycling

Treat coffee pulp with <strong>EM® Composta</strong> immediately after processing. It ferments into odorless, high-value fertilizer in weeks instead of months.
