About the producers:
Owner Cat was introduced to Ana by a mutual friend and when we were told of Mió Fazenda's farm, mission of traceability and contemporary practices we knew we had to work with them! his is an exciting start of hopefully a long term relationship with Mió Fazenda.
The following is from an interview with Ana by Vasileia Fanarioti for baristamagazine.com, detailing some of these aforementioned practices:
"In the heart of Brazil’s coffee country, nestled in Monte Santo de Minas, Ana Luiza Pellicer leads the charge as chief operating officer at the Mió coffee farm. With a family legacy spanning four generations in coffee production, Ana brings a deep-rooted passion for sustainability and innovation to the table.
At Mió, a forward-thinking approach to farming is evident, as the farm spearheads the adoption of precision agriculture techniques.
Ana Luiza Pellicer:' "Precision agriculture is a farming management system that uses field data to make decisions about crop needs. It uses geo-referenced data (collected by satellites, for example), plus other sources of information such as soil composition, yield, production and quality indicators, soil maps, and so on.
All these measurements will then be analyzed and used to make decisions and predictions on crop management. The main goal of precision agriculture is to ensure that the right resources or products are placed at the right location at the right time—and in the right amount. It’s not only about having the tools, but also about using them smartly." '.
