KINGSTON, Jamaica – The Jamaica Agricultural Commodities Regulatory Authority (JACRA) spearheaded a coffee farm resuscitation and replacement planting exercise last week in Higgin Town, St Ann.
The Authority distributed and planted more than 200 coffee seedlings on the Winefield property of Kenneth Black, a veteran coffee farmer with over 40 years of experience in the industry.
The initiative forms part of JACRA’s response to the growing needs of farmers who have experienced significant declines in coffee production across the High Mountain coffee-producing regions, particularly as a result of severe droughts and extensive bushfires.
