Owned by Juan Carlos Herrera L�pez since 1970 as a family inheritance, the farm is located 500 meters west of Finca Santa Gema in El Pinabete, Los Arados, Mosonte, Nueva Segovia. Spanning 3.9 hectares, the farm yields an average of 12 quintals of coffee per hectare. The farm sits at an altitude of 1380 to 1450 meters and cultivates Catuai rojo, Catuai Amarillo, Catimor, and Caturra varieties on sandy loam soils. The harvest season extends from December to April. Las Naranjas employs one permanent worker and hires five additional workers during the harvest and processing periods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tabs__paragraph\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tabs__paragraph\"\u003eThe Las Naranjas lot is cultivated at altitudes between 1450 and 1550 meters on a 3-hectare plot. The farm uses eco-friendly practices, providing shade with forest species, fruit trees, and bananas. Low-intensity pesticides (green labels), organic fertilizers, and synthetic fertilizers are utilized. Regular pruning and shade management improve plant health, and only ripe cherries are manually harvested.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tabs__paragraph\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tabs__paragraph\"\u003eAfter selection, the cherries are floated and depulped, then fermented for 18 to 24 hours before being washed with clean water. The coffee is transported in plastic bags and macen sacks to the processing facility, ensuring cleanliness throughout the journey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tabs__paragraph\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tabs__paragraph\"\u003eAt the dry mill, the coffee is dried on African beds under micro-tunnel covers, never touching the ground. Rakes made of PVC (a type of plastic) are used for movement, maintaining cleanliness. Once dried, the coffee is stored separately in designated areas within the warehouse, always in new plastic bags and macen sacks. The coffee is then rested for about a month, hulled, classified, and packed in jute sacks and Ecotact bags for export, adhering to ICO standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tabs__paragraph\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tabs__paragraph\"\u003eLas Naranjas farm supports various social and environmental initiatives, promoting sustainability in all aspects.
