Overview
I have owned the farm for the last 21 years when I bought it. Since I
am an agricultural engineer and zoo technician, I decided to grow coffee
for I'm a fan of the industry and agriculture. In country like Nicaragua
that is not Industrial, I think I made the best choice.
My grandparents were farmers, coffee growers, as well as my father,
uncles and cousins.
I had been preselected for COE in the last 2 years (in the group of
the CISA). I had made it to the 150 finalist but thanks to the
interchange of experiences and work with classification of product, step
by step, I improved so much with the better water for washing, wet
milling, harvesting and picking of the coffee.
I feel very happy because my mission was to produce coffee with a
high yield per acre. My vision and purpose was to increase quality
standards and having achieved it, I expect to stay in this select group
and change my life standards.
