Pest management on our processing area starts before we see pests. We build resilience from the ground up because healthy soil grows strong plants. Our mix of coffee trees, fruit trees, and shade species creates balance and attracts beneficial insects that handle pest control and pollination naturally. We also choose coffee varieties suited to Kintamani and Batukaru's conditions, so plants can fight off disease on their own.

Active Monitoring and Natural Solutions

We follow Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) and check plants daily for pests and diseases. If harmful pests like coffee berry borer (CBB) show up, farmers manually remove and destroy affected berries right away to stop it from spreading. We also set up pheromone traps to help us track pest numbers and catch problems early.

We use natural solutions: organic treatments, beneficial insects, and compost that keeps plants healthy without damaging the ecosystem.

Training and Knowledge-Sharing

Training is a key part of our pest management. We work with farmers, local agricultural authorities, and the Department of Agriculture to share knowledge on pest identification, monitoring techniques, and natural control methods. This helps everyone catch problems early and manage them effectively.

By combining prevention, daily checks, natural treatments, and healthy farm ecosystems, we protect coffee plants, support biodiversity, and keep producing high-quality, sustainable coffee.
