"So what we grow on Mount Gorongosa is shade grown Arabica coffee. And this is, this is an effort to grow this very high quality premium commodity for the community and at the same time inter-row crop with, with staple food products, staple food crops and this agro forestry system. So this is native hardwood trees planted alongside the coffee trees. And what that does is it provides its shade about 60 percent, 60/40 percent shade for the coffee. And that creates this really high quality coffee, big beans, delicious, delicious coffee beans."

17. SOUNDBITE (English) Matthew Jordan, associate director of the Agricultural Livelihoods Program of Gorongosa National Park:
"After the political situation calmed down we were able to initiate this scaling phase and that's where we now. We're in an exponential growth phase. So we started with this 40,000 trees which is, what the coffee that's produced behind me that's where that comes from, is this pilot phase. And now this year we've already planted 300,000 coffee trees. And every year, every subsequent year we hope to plant between 200 and 300 thousand coffee seedlings. So that's a ten fold sort of growth. We have to keep that going year on year. And that's the type of scale that's really required to create a maximum impact for the community and to have something that really addresses this sense of urgency for the rainforest."
