Ibonia Estate

The story

Challenges

The estate faces significant pressure from urban development due to its proximity to Nairobi, which makes sustaining coffee production increasingly difficult.

Innovations

The farm employs meticulous data logging and outturn separation by date, alongside high-precision pruning practices and a strong focus on soil conservation and organic matter management.
