World Coffee Research was established in 2012 as a result of the realization by many in the coffee industry that there was a huge need for a global body of research, and that the coffee sector needed to develop strategies to respond to obstacles that are particularly affecting producers worldwide. WCR is a joint effort among researchers, coffee companies, and in many cases national and international institutions, with a mission to discover and disseminate meaningful and practical data about coffee production through intensive and intentional scientific research. WCR has proved itself to be an open and transparent resource for facts and figures, extensive variety classification and study, and a means for producers to access not simply intangible knowledge but also actual plant material and farm solutions that provide practical assistance in the field and in the moment.<\/div>\n
