What was evaluated
The observed average across 23 coffee farms in southeastern Brazil compared areas closer to managed colonies with control areas farther away.
Comparator and study design
The comparison was based on distance from managed colonies under the conditions evaluated in the study.
Method and metric
The published metric is production per plant. The result describes Arabica coffee under the conditions investigated by the research.
What this result shows in the study context.
The study supports the public statement of 16% higher yield in Arabica coffee. The number refers to production per plant; bags per hectare require a dedicated metric.
The result is specific to Arabica coffee and the conditions described in the study; other crops require their own evidence.
AgroBee connects evidence to the actual area: crop, flowering window, logistics, management and the metric defined for follow-up.
