Eco-certified Coffee Agroforestry in Indonesia: Reconciling Conflicting Goals?

Global supply chains are undergoing rapid transformations that change the way food is produced in developing countries and traded across the world. In recent years, there has been a proliferation of different certification schemes that require farmers to adopt certain production and quality standards in order for them to gain access to international markets for highervalue products. Such certification schemes (e.g. Fairtrade, Organic and others) are founded on ethical codes that try to address the social and economic conditions of farmers as well as contribute to environmental sustainability. However, there is still an ongoing debate on whether farmers in producing countries like Indonesia actually benefit. This chapter explores coffee eco-certification schemes in Indonesia and, in particular, does a cost-benefit assessment of local standards across the coffee certification value chain.
