Through the beginning of the partnership with the Global Coffee Platform, in addition to digital inclusion, the Program started to disseminate sustainability in coffee production. Such content helps the adoption of good practices in productive systems and therefore, can increase business profitability and coffee quality,\u00a0 while ensuring environmental sustainability and improvement of life conditions for the rural population in general.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to classes, several Field Days were promoted with the objective of showing, in practice, efforts to seek for the increasingly sustainable coffee production, with higher productivity and expansion of research application, technology and field improvements.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5857 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/www.cecafe.com.br\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/pi2-600x397.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"242\" height=\"160\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cecafe.com.br\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/pi2-200x132.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.cecafe.com.br\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/pi2-400x265.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.cecafe.com.br\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/pi2-600x397.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.cecafe.com.br\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/pi2-800x530.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.cecafe.com.br\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/pi2.jpg 1025w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 242px) 100vw, 242px\" \/>For that, Cecaf\u00e9 also established cooperation terms with extension entities, which provided agriculture technicians to teach classes.

This process aims at valuing the coffee image in order that children recognize the importance of coffee producers and this industry for Brazil. The intention is to implement everything through digital inclusion.<\/p>\n<p>Teachers, the major information\u00a0 replicators, will be trained by e-learning, practical guides and sessions, with the objective of creating the cognitive and educational environment to form future citizens and qualified manpower for the fields. Quarterly lectures are planned with teachers of the main schools of the region, including a computer workshop for inclusion.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Young people in the rural environment<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>For young people, family succession and entrepreneurship topics are extremely important. According to Embrapa, Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecu\u00e1ria [Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation], by 2030, approximately 40% of the rural producers will leave the activity. Added to that, according to Sebrae, Servi\u00e7o Brasileiro de Apoio \u00e0s Micro e Pequenas Empresas [Brazilian Micro and Small Business Support Service], 70% of family companies end their activities due to the death of the founder and only 5% of the remaining ones survive to the 3rd generation.<\/p>\n<p>Most of young people opt to leave the field to seek for better work conditions in large cities. Therefore, the challenge is to propose\u00a0 actions in order to\u00a0 make young people see\u00a0 opportunities in the field, with quality of life and income serving as encouragement to enable them to continue producing quality and sustainable coffee.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Rural Producers<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Concerning rural producers, computer and sustainability classes, emphasizing good agriculture practices, will continue. However, a new module will be created, called Produtor Informado Avan\u00e7ado [Advanced Informed Producer], focused on producers that have already concluded the first phase. It is a demand identified directly by rural producers in several regions and this module will offer deep content on tools for field work and property management through the adoption of good agriculture practices and benchmarking for production costs.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of all efforts for consolidating the sustainability in the Brazilian coffee production, Cecaf\u00e9 has improved the Code of Ethics and Behavior. This Code represents a solid incentive for an increasing amount of companies in the market to undertake efforts in the social and environmental fields and collaborate at making the entire community aware of the importance of sustainability in the coffee production chain.<\/p>\n<p>The main principle is the observation of the provisions of the Code. <img decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-5859 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/www.cecafe.com.br\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/selo-cecafe-600x375.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"216\" height=\"135\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cecafe.com.br\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/selo-cecafe-200x125.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.cecafe.com.br\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/selo-cecafe-320x202.jpg 320w, https:\/\/www.cecafe.com.br\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/selo-cecafe-400x250.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.cecafe.com.br\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/selo-cecafe-600x375.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.cecafe.com.br\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/selo-cecafe-700x441.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.cecafe.com.br\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/selo-cecafe-800x500.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.cecafe.com.br\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/selo-cecafe-1200x750.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.cecafe.com.br\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/selo-cecafe-1638x1024.jpg 1638w, https:\/\/www.cecafe.com.br\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/selo-cecafe.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 216px) 100vw, 216px\" \/>This way, the members associated to Cecaf\u00e9 seek for transferring to their supply chain the ethics and commitment with the national legislation. Thus, the Sustainability Cecaf\u00e9 Seal (image on the right) was created as a symbol\u00a0 to the initiative. The associated members may use the seal in different ways in their communications and products.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>Final considerations<\/h3>\n<p>Although 2016 was challenging in many aspects, considering the context detailed above, we finished the year with clear commitment to the coffee production development. The expectation for 2017 is hope: the efforts of all coffee chain place us in the right path to ensure\u00a0 Brazil competitiveness and absolute leadership in the world coffee trade.
