Enhancing food security and the resilience of smallholder coffee farmers to climate change through sustainable business modelsspecialty coffee value chains? The case of the dry corridor in Honduras
Despite selling green coffee to international specialty coffee markets such as certified and high quality, small coffee farmers are often poor and food insecure. This might be partially explained by power relations between buyers and suppliers, but also livelihoods’ vulnerability to climate change might play a large role.
As part of the efforts to improve the sustainability of coffee production, the coffee sector is working towards extensive adoption of agronomic techniques (e.g., climate-smart practices), neglecting the farmers' livelihoods and food security.
In this study is focus on how the different coffee value chain actors understand, negotiate and can address farmers' food security while enhancing resilience coffee-producing system to climate change. The research is based on a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative survey data with qualitative research based on interviews.
