Tell us how that 1000 is reduced/utilised step by step untill 70 is the remainder. Am sure you can get that breakdown.
Otherwise yours are just clever POLITICAL STATEMENTS.

Jimmy you are missing the point—- farmers sell cherry and what is traded at the auction in beans. Cherry is milled at the factory dried to form parchment that is the milled at the dry mill to make green beans that is traded at the auction and everywhere. But to get one kilo of green beans you need 6 to 7 kgs of cherry. So the 1000 price at auction you need to divide it by 6.5 to get actual price of cherry at farm gate

many years ago I had access to coffee business......... I realized most people cant tell how many kilos of ripe cherry make 1 kilo of milled dry beans which is what goes to the coffee auction.
if the price is 1000 for dry beans then the price is 200 bob for green coffee before pulling, drying &milling costs.
I would love to hear a divergent view

He is wrong. You need about 5kgs of cherry to get 1 kg of green beans going at 1000 at the auction. 1000 /5 =200. Farmers currently getting 100 and above. Still not fair but not so much of a gap

It's not 100 red vs 1000 red. kama vile wengine wamesema, those wet red cherries farmers take to factory wanapewa 100-130/kg shrink from 6kg to 1kg after processing. So comparison is closer to 100 vs 166.

the coffee value chain can be shortened by connecting farmers cooperatives to roasters and increasing local consumption. This would make the lower grades fetch better and also advise farmers on higher productivity. Jimmy is giving cock and bull stories

70kg of coffee cherry gives 14kgs of perched berries on the higher side so 1000/14 =71.1
