Coffea Stenophylla: The Rare Coffee Species That Could Save the Industry

Описание: Coffea stenophylla is a rare West African coffee species with real potential to tackle climate change threats—offering heat tolerance, disease resistance, and flavour that rivals top-quality Arabica. In this video, see how Coffea stenophylla was rediscovered in Sierra Leone, why it can thrive at higher temperatures, and how its genetic traits could shape the future of coffee through breeding and sustainable farming.

Learn about the challenges of low yield and market awareness, the practical steps needed for wider adoption, and why this species matters for coffee’s survival. We’ll cover the science, the history, and what farmers, researchers, and consumers need to know.
