"Aprocassi currently has 600 active members, distributed throughout the provinces of San Ignacio and Jaen in the department of Cajamarca, with crops grown at altitudes ranging from 1,000 to 2,500 meters above sea level. The cooperative also develops social and environmental projects, thus contributing to improving the living conditions of our producers and maintaining environmental sustainability. Aprocassi has many interesting projects and initiatives including empowering women coffee growers to implement beekeeping as a means to diversify their farms and increase yields. They have also piloted a study to analyze the life cycle of their production from farm to port shipment in order to become carbon neutral."
