Most people never give a thought to the origin of the coffee they drink. In fact, many people are unaware that coffee even comes from a large bush like tree that produces a bright red cherry. Even fewer know what part of the tree the coffee comes from. It is true, a knowledge of "where and how" coffee is grown is not necessary to enjoy a great cup of coffee.
However, as a person begins to grasp the various aspects relating to the origin of what they are drinking, they begin to experience an increased appreciation of the unique qualities of each region's specific taste profile. Different environmental surroundings produce different soil conditions.
Soil quality is of key importance to all plant life. Coffee is not excluded.
When there are nutrient imbalances in the soil, plants are subject to nutrient stresses that result in reduction in growth, production, quantity, and quality. A constant, balanced supply of nutrients to the plant is essential, otherwise nutrient deficiencies or toxicities will result in plant nutrient stresses. Ph is also of extreme importance. The acidic level of soil has a direct effect on the ability of the plant to receive nutrients.
