Abstract

Coffee is the most profitable cash crop in Nepal’s mid-hills, accounting for nearly three times greater profit. Although smallholder farmers’ organic Nepali coffee is gaining popularity across the world, pests, sickness, and climate change threaten the industry’s survival. This research examines the current techniques, problems, and socioeconomic implications of coffee production in Nepal with a case of Gulmi area. This study used a qualitative design with purposive sampling to obtain data, and the findings provided substantial qualitative insights. The study includes a total of thirty participants: twenty-four farmers and six coffee official groups. The data indicate that coffee cultivation is carried out by an aging agricultural population with limited understanding, emphasizing the need for changes to modern farming practices. Insects, infections, climate change, and a labor shortage are among the numerous challenges confronting the business, threatening livelihoods and sustainability. To aid farmers, several governments support measures, such as irrigation, subsidies, and training, are necessary.
