4:38 am
he uses it to treat his coffee plant. he inherited the farm from his parents 7 years ago and has made a lot of changes. i see, i mean gaming a like everyone here. my parents made excessive use of chemical pesticides and fertilizers with watching marketing docking. that made the soil hard on the sitting on the plums week and no good for the future goes and i tried to pull up the see time. that is why i wanted to do things differently and decided to specialize in organic farming. the coming that'd be to begin once a month, these phrases, coffee plants with the own advertising nutrient cocktail which also keeps pests at bay. he used to live in the urban sprawl of ho team and city and the south of the country. but return to the central highlands in the north where he grew up. it hasn't rained in 3 months, which is unusual here. and it's hot to coffee grow is used to say the cool climate here was perfect. but now many say the weather has become unpredictable. didn't
4:39 am
then jones uses one sack of chicken men newer for each tree to keep the soil soft and combat the impact of climate change? made it either you don't allow them the dry season this year is really extreme. the other company farm is about to go to the crops 2 or 3 times more than i do with my organic approach. and it's working out here. my trees are strong with healthy and even gross. on the see knows every bush and tree on his plantation and waits until the cherry like fruit have turned a nice deep red, signifying that they're ripe. the harvest period is normally between november and december. with that too is different here. didn't then don't defense bear fruit all year round. quality requires patience. he says and passion rather than there was sweetest honey under beans or inside the cherry. other farmers in the area were initially dismissive of his decision to break with traditions. seeing that his book
4:40 am
knowledge was no match for their years of experience, but soon they were lining up to ask him for advice, which he is happy to provide. now, they've joined forces to founder cooperative, so they can all benefit from his methods. look, i have, i mean, that's why i started using organic fertilizers, 3 years ago, we've done this help. i've learned a lot from him. everything takes longer, but it's more sustainable by the roots, a stronger and the beans are better. but also, but yes, the quality is very good. i got a new generation is taking over coffee plantations in vietnam and inheriting the challenging conditions with it. this area is mainly home to small holders. most of them have a ranch to hector's of land and just under 2000 trees and all they want to save their livelihoods. and coffee farming. among them is winning from time who's testing a new variety of coffee being at his nursery. it goes by the name ts 5,

4:42 am
compromised by climate change is also vital for the regions. coffee traitors. demand for those beings is growing in asia to the before they are ready to be sold . the beans 1st have to meet the discriminating tastes of the coffee testers. they check the products, sweetness, and the city in the process determining the market value of that harvest kid. i can't taste whether a coffee has been growing organically, but i can taste its quality and the new ts 5 being has a great dr. taste. the vast majority of coffee grown in vietnam is the strong tasting robust of variety. the plants are more robust than a rabbit, but they are sensitive to high temperatures and drought. as we try to do better and face those challenges, i think where you would kind of open it is to make like a bit of coffee and new processes, new drying methods. so can you innovate? yes and for didn't ben duncan is neighbors. there's more at stake these loved
