TITLE:

IMPACT OF SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTION PRACTICES ON THE QUALITY OF COFFEE CONILON (Coffea canephora) BEANS AND BEVERAGES FROM FLUMINENSE REGION.

KEY WORDS:

SUMMARY:

The main objective of this project is to evaluate the impact of different cultivation systems and organic fertilizers on the quality of Coffea canephora (conilon) beans, with an emphasis on the chemical and sensory characteristics of coffee after anaerobic fermentation. Two cultivation systems will be compared: conventional and agroforestry. The conventional system will be used as a reference, while the agroforestry system will be implemented with the aim of promoting biodiversity, improving soil quality and reducing the use of synthetic inputs. In addition to comparing the cultivation systems, the study will also evaluate the effect of different organic fertilizers on the production and quality of coffee beans. Two types of fertilizers will be used: black soldier fly frass and Kapaphicus alvarezi-based fertilizer. These fertilizers have a high potential to improve soil fertility and the quality of agricultural products, in addition to being a more sustainable alternative to chemical fertilizers. The coffee beans produced in each treatment will undergo anaerobic fermentation, a biotechnological process that significantly influences the sensory characteristics of the coffee. After fermentation, the beans will be dried and subjected to chemical analysis to determine the content of caffeine, reducing sugars, chlorogenic acids and other compounds of interest. In addition, sensory analyses will be carried out to evaluate the sensory characteristics of the coffee, such as aroma, flavor and body.
