Description

Coffee is grown in 15 out of the 19 provinces in Papua New Guinea. These are predominantly the Highland provinces, and they are characterised by smallholder farms as opposed to large plantations. The common term for this form of agriculture is PSC or Premium Smallholder Coffee. The independent PSC farms typically handpick, depulp, ferment, wash and sun dry on site, before making their way (with their coffee) to areas such as Goroka where the coffee is dry milled and readied for export.

Although the terrain and lifestyle is challenging, there is no denying the part that altitude, rainfall and fertile soil plays in making this an exceptional coffee growing region.
