Indonesia is the fourth biggest producer of coffee in the world, behind Brazil, Colombia and Vietnam, making it a key crop for the country’s farmers. Unfortunately, coffee farmers face invasive weed issues that threaten their crops and livelihoods.

Coffee plantations thrive in areas with ideal temperatures, high rainfall, and soil conditions that also promote the growth of invasive weeds. Weeds compete with coffee plants for nutrients and moisture, ultimately leading to lower yields. As such, Kopernik is looking at developing biomaterials to suppress weed growth and improve yields for coffee crops. The experiment in Pajahan will focus on mat ingredients and testing specific on invasive weeds

Biomaterials or bio-based materials are substances that are able to interact with biological system.
