Kenya transcends quality by pursuing grafting of two cultivars

The allure of Kenyan coffee lies in its elevation, meticulous processing, vibrant flavors, and commitment to sustainability. As coffee enthusiasts embark on a global quest for the perfect cup, the rich tapestry of Kenyan coffee continues to captivate palates and reinforce its position as the best in the world.

The consumption ratio of coffee worldwide has already exceeded the production volume, and it is expected by 2030, to increase by a third to 200 million, due to population increase and disposable incomes rise. It is imperative that producing nations should boost their productivity to tap into the burgeoning demand of coffee.

In this pursuit, Kenya, where coffee cultivation is both an art and a tradition, a fascinating development is taking root – the grafting of the resilient Ruiru 11 variety with the esteemed SL34. This innovative approach not only promises to enhance production rates but also holds the key to elevating the quality of Kenyan coffee to new heights.
