Description
Description | Kirinyaga has a total of 45,469 acres of coffee grown in 15 coffee cooperative societies and over 400 estates. The total production in the last coffee year (2016/2017) was more than 26,000 tons and this can go up to 40,000 under better climatic conditions and agronomy. During the year 2017/18 the County produced 32,310,958kgs or 32,311 tons of cherry. When this is pulped and dried, it produces 4,615 tons of parchment (7 tons of cherry give 1 ton of parchment). Coffee husks are mainly obtained from the dry processing of coffee berries. About 0.18 ton of husk are produced from 1 ton of coffee fruits Hence 26,000 tons of coffee produces 5,000 tons of Coffee Husks. The coffee Husk Bio-based factory project seeks to re-utilize coffee cherry husks as substrate for biogas and converting it to fuel pellets, aimed at maximizing the added value of the three pillars of sustainability (Environment, Economy and Society). |
