Coffee production in Laos

Coffee production in Laos

Coffess is Laos' fifth largest export product. The Bolaven Plateau, where coffee was first planted in the country, is the primary region of production for Laos. Several species were planted including Arabica, Robusta, and Liberica. The Bolaven Plateau's high elevation and volcanic red earth soils are highly suited for coffee production.

Laos' abundant farmers, land resources and highly suitable climate makes for a high probability of producing Arabica coffee in large quantities.
