Consumers do not seem to care, they get their caffeine fix daily, not aware or really caring that the grower works 12-hour days six days a week.

An 8-oz cup of bad coffee costs more at the retail level than many growers make for half a days work.

Growers need to unite internationally and simply segue to another strategy of negotiating sales pricing for unroasted beans, perhaps offering ONLY roasted beans for export.

To a certain degree, the same situation applies for the tea industry.

Rigged auctions or commodity exchange pricing are both artificial price indicators.
