Economics of estate coffee production

This paper presents an economic analysis of estate coffee production in Kenya. Based on information from the 1983 Estate Survey, a series of models were developed to represent the production costs and returns found within various estate categories. Notable differences in the level of profitability between irrigated and non-irrigated estate are revealed. The analysis also indicated that while overall estate profit per hectare was satisfactory, a significant proportion of estates were incurring financial losses. Breakeven yields for each estate model are defined, and the effect of changes in coffee price on estate profitability examined
