Ethiopia Uraga
Uraga, a woreda in the Guji zone of Ethiopia, is notable for its coffee production, which is carried out on very small farms averaging less than half a hectare each. These farms also grow crops like corn, barley, beans, and wheat. Coffee from this region can be either Washed or Natural, processed at the Uraga washing station.
The washing stations cater to several hundred producers who deliver
cherries throughout the harvest season. This communal processing results
in blending cherries from various producers into day lots, complicating
traceability to individual farmers. Despite this, efforts are made to
source coffee from the same washing stations each year to maintain
consistency. Additionally, due to limited access, most farmers in this
region do not use fertilizers or pesticides in their coffee production.

In Ethiopia, coffee is predominantly grown on small plots by farmers who cultivate various other crops. The coffee cherries are delivered to nearby washing stations or central processing units. Here, the coffee is sorted, weighed, and the farmers are compensated or given receipts. The processing, which can be washed or natural, is carried out by the washing station, and the coffee is then dried on raised beds.
