A Tale of Two Heavyweights: Organic Coffee vs. Traditional Coffee
A heaping of organic coffee powder being tossed into your
steaming hot milk in the mornings is an experience in itself. That’s not
knocking traditional coffee, which also turns tired bodies to life in a matter
of minutes.
Today, many consumers have switched to organic fruits and vegetables
in an attempt to fend off pesticides, live healthier, and to stay
environmentally conscious. As a result, the more serious coffee enthusiasts have
been forced to pay premium prices for organic coffee as a result of Fair Trade
and the complexity of its production.
Just how is organic coffee produced that
justifies this expense? To begin, organic coffee production differs from
traditional company in that organic coffee plants grow under shade trees, which
serve to purify the soil and prevent water contamination. Given the limited
number of shade trees, many coffee growers have opted to produce
bigger crops in the middle of pesticide and fertilizer infested territory given
the larger surface area. Unfortunately, there is no way to produce non-organic
coffee without the use of synthetic chemicals that have been known to harm the
environment. Since pesticides pollute the soil, much question has been raised
over the declining taste of coffee and its effects on health.
In addition to
nurturing organic coffee beans, shade trees also double as habitats for birds
that prevent pests from touching organic coffee crops. In essence, they are
nature’s replacement for pesticides. Today, an ideal plot of land for organic
coffee is a small farm with plenty of shade trees and a sizable bird population
for pest control. Organic coffee thrives so much in these conditions that the
United States requires all of its organic farmers to use this type of land.
In
conclusion, organic coffee is grown under better and more stable conditions than
traditional coffee. With smaller farms and its shade trees replacing large
coffee plantations soaked with pesticides, organic coffee is your best bet
towards a better environment and a salute to your health.
