The coffee plantation area is at approximately 3Km from the farm's main house, and this is one of the reasons that led the producer to invest in this property. Coffee is cultivated under the family agriculture system, in a region with good altitude, which is a highly relevant factor for coffee planting.
Coffee processing system
The whole coffee produced at Fazenda Machado is processed by the pulped natural method using the humid system, in which coffee beans picked on a certain day are pulped that same day in two stages. After the selective picking, the beans are washed and separated in cherry, boia, green, in addition to leaves, stones and other impurities. The beans are dried in cemented terraces or in driers of the burareiro type and hot houses.
Concern with quality
All processes performed during production are supported by COOCAMP - Cooperativa Agrícola dos Cafeicultores do Município de Piatã [Agricultural Cooperative of the Municipality of Piatã] and ASCAMP - Associação dos Cafeicultores do Município de Piatã [Coffee Producers' Association of the Municipality of Piatã].
