Coffee cultivation in Vietnam.

Since 1975, coffee production in Vietnam has increased from 4150 to 179 000 t for 150 000 ha planted, with yields reaching up to 3.5 t/ha. The mainly robusta plantations are concentrated on the rich soils of the High Plateaux; there are also large-scale arabica plantings (70 000 ha) in the northern provinces. The soil and climatic conditions in these regions, the cultural practices, harvesting and postharvest processing are described. Large state or provincial plantations have been split into small individual plots and rented out to farm workers. The reviving market economy is encouraging Vietnamese smallholders to take a greater interest in coffee growing. The state-run company Vinacafe was restructured in May 1995 and has regained the leading role in the coffee sector.
