Towards a sustainable coffee industry in the Central Highlands!

June 12th, 2024

The Central Highlands is boosting innovation and sustainability in agriculture! Together with Australia’s National Science Agency-CSIRO, through the Aus4Innovation program, stakeholders from the regional coffee industry have come together within the Central Highlands Innovation Cluster to share lessons and identify innovation priorities to enhance the sustainability of the industry.

The vibrant exchange session took place at Tay Nguyen University, showing the power of collaboration. From government departments to researchers, businesses and experts, everyone’s brewing ideas for a greener, more resilient coffee sector.

This workshop, among others held by the Cluster, is not just about new technologies or knowledge. It’s also about building networks, sparking creativity, and tackling challenges together, aiming for a future where our beloved coffee not only tastes good but also does good for the planet.

Hats off to the dedication of Aus4Innovation program’s partners, making sure the coffee industry is ready to face any challenge and thrive sustainably.
