SUMMARY:

In the mountainous region of the State of Rio de Janeiro, the city of Bom Jardim is located, with agricultural activities playing a major role in the municipality's economy. The region has a strong agricultural tradition, with emphasis on coffee and vegetable production. One of the environmental problems caused by coffee farming in the region is the large volume of waste resulting from the processing of coffee beans. In 2022, Agronomist Kurt Kaufmann Junior and Mr. Everardo Erthal, a large coffee producer in the region, entered into a partnership with the aim of using this waste to prepare an organic fertilizer using the Bokashi technique. The fertilizer has already been sold to some producers in the region, demonstrating good initial acceptance. Aiming to document and understand the implementation process and the dynamics of the initiative, in addition to providing support for the dissemination of this practice, this work will be carried out with the aim of producing a case study that will present the following information: Justification for carrying out the enterprise; History of the project implementation process; Description of the production process and product characterization; Characterization of the raw materials used; Characterization of the fertilizer production process; Cost analysis; Assessment of the level of consumer satisfaction and a general critical analysis and recommendations.
