This fact sheet outlines the adoption of good agricultural practices in coffee plantations to mitigate the impacts of climate change, market price volatility, and pests like coffee leaf rust (Roya), specifically within Mesoamerica.

• The implementation of agroforestry systems in coffee plantations helps conserve biodiversity by providing refuges and corridors for native trees, animals, and plants, and mitigates climate change by storing carbon.
• Managing shade using native fruit or timber trees is a key strategy for stabilizing the internal climate of coffee plantations and mimicking natural forest conditions to promote flora and fauna conservation.
• Sustainable water management involves reducing pollution, establishing wells to capture and treat honey waters (aguas mieles), and repurposing dried residues as fertilizers.
• Integrated pest and disease management emphasizes a broad vision that prioritizes prevention over corrective measures, requires observation of organism cycles, and encourages the use of non-chemical (physical, mechanical, or biological) control methods.
