Climate change in Ethiopia has resulted in increased temperature and reduced rainfall, due to which many areas that were suitable for coffee growing are becoming less suitable, and in some cases unsuitable.

Ethiopian smallholder coffee farmers continue to receive only a fraction of the retail price and face unnecessary interventions from brokers. This reduces their ability to compete with well-established and commercial producers with better market infrastructure, and lowers their exposure to available/ emerging market opportunities.
