“…These results indicate that both the effects of genotypes (clones) and the effect of the GxE interaction are important for the expression of the beverage quality. Significant effects of the genotype × environment interaction in coffee growing were also reported in other studies (Barbosa et al, 2012;Borém et al, 2019;Laviola et al, 2007;Fonseca et al, 2019;Moura et al, 2017).…”

“…Similar results were found by Cabrera, Acevedo and Lacerra (1991) in their studies conducted in the mountainous area of Cuba and by Buenaventura and Casteño (2002) in Colombia in crops planted at three different altitudes. Others studies also observed that the higher the altitude, the higher the scores for beverage quality in arabica coffee (Barbosa et al, 2012, Borém et al, 2019Rodrigues et al, 2016).…”

Most of the Western Amazon coffee production is made from growing unregistered clones, selected by the coffee growers themselves. The aim of this study is to evaluate the sensory profile and genetic diversity of the most cultivated Coffea canephora clones in the Western Amazon. Coffee samples at cherry stage of the clones 03, 05, 08, 25 and 66 were collected at eight municipalities in the main coffee growing zones, with altitudes ranging from 86 to 381 meters. Beverage quality was evaluated according to the Robusta Cupping Protocols and estimates of the genotype × environment interaction (GE) were made interpreting non-parametric and multivariate methods. The GE interaction was significant and the genetic component was also important to the expression of beverage quality (h 2 =82,23). The clones 25 and 05 have good attributes and mean score near 80 points. Sweetness was the sensory descriptor with the greatest impact on beverage quality of these two clones. Harshness was the descriptor that had the greatest negative impact on beverage quality of clone 66. The clones had complexities that differed and that were not necessarily associated with greater beverage quality. Despite the differences in their beverage attributes, these clones that are grown for their high productivity presented low genetic diversity of the beverage quality.

“…A mesorregião sul de Minas Gerais apresenta atributos geográficos e condições climáticas desejáveis para o desenvolvimento da cultura do café (BORÉM, et al 2019). As classes climáticas para a mesorregião são Cwb (56%), classificado como clima temperado úmido e inverno seco, precipitação média anual de 1500 mm, de maior concentração entre os meses de novembro a fevereiro e temperatura média no verão inferior a 22ºC e superior a 10ºC durante o inverno; Cwa (44%), classificado como clima temperado úmido e inverno seco.…”

“…As condições de produção na região permitem níveis de produtividade relativamente estáveis, além da melhor qualidade sensorial. Borém et al (2019) identificaram que na região da Mantiqueira de Minas, acima de 1000 m ocorre menor amplitude térmica do ar, o que proporciona cafés com qualidade superior.…”

O objetivo deste estudo é verificar o impacto dos custos de diferentes métodos de colheita no preço final de venda, bem como verificar os ganhos monetários obtidos na produção de cafés especiais no município de Carmo de Minas (MG). Os dados deste estudo buscam subsidiar a tomada de decisão quanto ao tipo de colheita e aos retornos esperados em termos de preços de venda do produto. A metodologia adotada foi a de conversão das unidades de campo (balaios) para a unidade de comercialização do café (sacas de 60 kg). Os dados levantados permitem ao produtor desenvolver estratégias de manejo da lavoura de café para que atendam aos padrões do mercado, maximizando o retorno sobre os custos de colheita adotada. Dentre os métodos de colheita avaliados, a colheita manual selecionada tem maior potencial de retornos vantajosos para um sistema de produção de cafés especiais em Carmo de Minas (MG). Palavras-chaves: custo de colheita, cafés especiais, métodos de colheita. SPECIALTY COFFEE HARVEST: COST AND BENEFIT TO FARMERS IN THE MANTIQUEIRA DE MINAS AREA – MG ABSTRACT: Coffee market has become an overly complex market in terms of crop, cost, and sales management. The aim of this study was to verify the impact of different harvesting methods costs on sales price as well as to verify economic profits obtained by specialty coffees in Carmo de Minas (MG). The data addresses the decision-making regarding the picking system and the expected returns in terms of sales prices. The methodology foresees the conversion of field units (balaio) to coffee sales units (bags of 60 kg). The data collected allows the producer to develop coffee crop management strategies to come into the market standards, maximizing returns among the harvest costs. Amid the picking methods evaluated, the hand-picked coffee has the greatest potential for beneficial returns for a special coffee production system in Carmo de Minas (MG). Keywords: harvesting cost, specialty coffee, harvesting systems.

“…Climate, soil, topography, altitude range, latitude (Bertrand et al, ; Figueiredo et al, ), hydrography, as well as conservation status or degradation level are some of the environmental aspects affecting coffee quality (Alpizar & Bertrand, ; Tolessa, D'heer, Duchateau, & Boeckx, ). The effects of altitude in association with temperature have been described in several studies around the world as the main factors affecting coffee quality (Borém et al, ; Buenaventura‐Serrano & Castaño‐Castrillón, ; Decazy et al, ; Joët et al, ; Scholz et al, ; Silveira et al, ).…”

The aim of the study was to determine the sensory quality of the coffee cultivated in the Mantiqueira region of Brazil (Minas Gerais State) and to identify its main descriptors. The sensory quality of red and yellow coffee fruit varieties (Coffea arabica L.) grown in environments with different slopes, at altitudes ranging from 932 to 1,391 m, was analyzed in three different crop seasons. The dry processing method and the wet processing method, based on mechanical removal of skin and mucilage, were used. The variables were analyzed through correspondence analysis. There was no correspondence with sample discrimination between the direction the slope face and coffee sensory profile. The sensory characteristics of coffee such as flavor, acidity, body and sweetness correspond to the cultivation environment with altitudes above 1,050 m. However, for the red coffee fruit varieties, that correspondence only occurred when subjected to a wet‐processing method. The quality of the coffee as a micro‐region product was identified in this study at altitudes above 1,050 m. This effect was not found in natural red coffee fruit varieties. Practical Applications Environmental aspects such as latitude, longitude, altitude and slope, as well as different coffee varieties and processing methods were analyzed in consecutive crop seasons, based on multivariate logistic regression and correspondence analysis techniques. The impacts of different methods of coffee production and processing on beverage quality have been debated for years and will surely continue to be studied in the coming decades, mainly because it is a phenomenon of high complexity. The variations in the sensory profile of coffee produced in different countries or microregions, or even at different planting sites, are noteworthy.
