Uganda Guess Where the Coffee's Going

Uganda produces a lot of coffee, but this may change because the African nation’s tropical forests are drying up. There may be nothing left of Uganda’s coffee plantations within 30 years, according to a recent Reuter’s story.

Reuters reports: Uganda is Africa’s second biggest coffee producer after Ethiopia and has become a major player in robusta coffee production after political unrest in former top grower Ivory Coast slashed output.

“The outlook is bleak. If the average global temperatures rise by two degrees or more, then most of Uganda is likely to cease to be suitable for coffee… this may happen in 40 years or perhaps as little as 30,” the report said.

The report, “Turning up the heat, Climate Change and Poverty in Uganda,” said effects of global warming like increasing temperatures, more intense rains and storms, had led to erratic rainfall patterns in Uganda.
