Gayo Lues Coffee Farmers Recover After Floods With Drying and Market Support

Coffee farmers in Gayo Lues, in Indonesia’s Aceh province, are working to rebuild their businesses after flash floods.

They are drying coffee beans in greenhouses as part of their recovery.

Baitul Maal Merapi Merbabu is providing drying facilities and building a warehouse to help farmers process and store their crop.

The group is also helping farmers market their coffee in places including Yogyakarta, North Sumatra and other areas of Java.

Reaching more buyers could help farmers sell more of their harvest and increase its value.

The support is intended to help the farmers rebuild their businesses after the floods.
