Abstract

Coffee is of basic importance to the Kenyan economy, producing about 30 per cent of the total foreign exchange earnings. In the 1960s severe losses from coffee berry disease led to the launching of an intensive breeding programme that has resulted in a new cultivar which is disease resistant, high yielding, and compact in growth and produces good quality arabica coffee.
