Brazilian coffee: from farm to cup, the excellence that conquers the world

Brazil stands out as the world’s largest producer and exporter of coffee, with 2.2 million hectares dedicated to coffee farming, in both arabica and conilon (robusta) varieties. The quality and diversity of flavors of Brazilian coffee are recognized worldwide, the fruit of careful, dedicated work that begins in the field. For this excellence to be maintained and expanded, proper coffee plant nutrition is a critical factor.

A well-nourished plant not only achieves higher productivity but also ensures top-quality beans. Coffee cultivation demands a balanced supply of nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus, sulfur, boron, and zinc, nutrients essential for healthy plant development and the formation of productive branches. Replacing the elements removed by the harvest is essential for the longevity and vitality of the coffee plantation, as they ensure the crop’s vigor and productivity.

Main nutritional deficiencies in coffee

Nitrogen is the most important nutrient in coffee production during the growth phase and the second most accumulated nutrient in the beans. Nitrogen is responsible for stimulating vegetative growth and the formation of leaves and shoots on the coffee plant. It is one of the main components of proteins, enzymes, coenzymes, nucleic acids, cytochromes, and caffeine.
