EP 1180 Komal Sable - Agroforesty and the Future Of Coffee Production - The Daily Coffee Pro Podcast by Map It Forward
This is the 4th episode of a new five-part series on The Daily Coffee Pro by Map It Forward Podcast, hosted by Lee Safar.
Our returning guest in this series is Indian Coffee Producer and researcher, Komal Sable from South India Coffee Co.
In this series, Komal and Lee explore the future of coffee in India with particular attention to the role that climate, regenerative agriculture, and low-intervention coffee species will play in securing coffee's viability in the years to come.
In this episode of The Daily Coffee Pro by Map It Forward, Lee and Komal explore the concept of agroforestry and its crucial role in the future of coffee production in India.
The discussion covers the subjective nature of agroforestry based on regional differences, the shift from monocropping back to agroforestry due to rising temperatures, and the benefits of a symbiotic ecosystem that supports sustainable coffee growing.
They also touch on the financial investment required for smallholder farmers to adopt these practices. Tune in to understand how agroforestry can help de-risk coffee production and create a more sustainable future.
