TADESSE MESKELA [English with subtitles]: Now we are heading to the coffee area of Kilenso Mokonisa which produces Sidamo type of coffee. All the coffee from this area goes to the western world for consumption. We export it to Europe and we export it to America and Australia from this co-operative. So, I'm visiting the farmers to see how they are planting and how they are managing their coffee fields.
FARMER [foreign language with subtitles]: Our problem is, when our coffee ripens and is ready for sale, a man comes to our farm and says to us, \"I will take your coffee and pay you 0.75 birr ($0.08) for a kilo\". There's no negotiation, one person decides to buy our coffee for 0.75 birr ($0.08). We have no up-to-date price information, and one person controls the market. When our coffee is ready, please take it at the right market price.
ROSA [foreign language with subtitles]: I'm proud of him. I thank God for giving him to me. He earned what he has got through relentless effort. He works day and night. He loves his farmers and defends their rights. He really loves the farmers. I'm happy because he does this. Why should the Ethiopian farmer toil in their bare feet He wants them to afford a pair of shoes, to be well off. He asks why they still live in poverty when they're producing coffee. He is always pre-occupied with the farmers' poverty. He was planning to broaden his activities and God helped him get his dream job.
TADESSE MESKELA [English with subtitles]: My wife is interested in having cows to have milk for our family. I also like to have them because I used to take care of animals when I was very small. Until my age of 18, until I finished my high school and joined university. I used to help my family on the farms taking care of animals, farming, ploughing and digging and so on. So, I don't want to lose that spirit.
TADESSE MESKELA [English with subtitles]: There are middlemen here. There are coffee collectors, coffee suppliers, coffee exporters who are bidding for the coffee. The coffee exporters are on the right side and this big volume on the other side are coffee suppliers who are bringing coffee from different coffee growing zones and regions in Ethiopia. The big multinationals have offices here. For example, Taloca is buying for Kraft Food and Volcafé Speciality is buying for Nestle and also Starbucks. And there are also other big buyers in Europe like Dallmayr who is based in Germany, buying for different roasters around the world. The auction price is mainly based on the New York 'C' market. If New York is down by 5 cents today, the coffee exporters are going to buy the coffee for 5 cents down today. Once the coffee is bought from here, the coffee buyers or the coffee exporters are going to unload the coffee at the warehouse and they process it and sell to their buyers abroad. And after that the buyer is going to distribute this coffee to roasters and the roasters are going to buy this coffee, and the roasters, again, roast the coffee and sell to retailers and cafes.
TADESSE MESKELA [English with subtitles]: These are the coffees which are sold to buyers and roasters around the world and roasted at their companies. These are the coffees which are roasted in the UK by Asda. These are the coffees which are roasted in Minneapolis by a company called Peace Coffee, and there are also a lot of coffees which are just sold around the world in these 5 years after the formation of our Union. Our main aim is to bring more money into the coffee growers' pocket. This is our general area and to improve the farmer's life.
TADESSE MESKELA [English with subtitles]: We asked our farmers how much do they need for their red cherries, a kilo of red cherries which we are paying a maximum of 2 Ethiopian birr ($0.22) at this time. And they said, to make us live a better life, to send our children to school, to feed enough and have good clothing and a good life we need for a kilo of red cherry 10 birr ($1.10) which is the price which they are getting for their red cherry - last year had been 1 birr ($0.11) what they are need at this time to improve their life is 10 fold. It doesn't mean better life means having a car, having electricity or having a motorbike or... it doesn't that, At least to feed his family with nutritious food, to have clean water and to have clean clothes, and send his children to school.
FARMER [foreign language with subtitles]: Oh God of truth, God of heaven and earth, maker of everything who created this beautiful land. Help us farmers to get more from our green land. Help us to change our lives, get rid of poverty, build better houses to live in, satisfy our needs, educate our children and improve our lives.
BURTE ARBA [foreign language with subtitles]: I have been a coffee farmer for about twenty years. Our livelihood is based on coffee. It takes four years for the coffee tree to grow to its full size. In its 5th year it begins producing proper beans and that's when it becomes useful to us. Since the price of coffee has fallen drastically I have not been getting a fair reward for my years of work. We would soar high above the sky if we got 5 birr ($0.57) for a kilo of coffee, forget 20 or 10 birr, I say 5 birr ($0.57) would change our lives beyond recognition. Fifteen people and a little baby you see here live in this house. My son who is married is still staying with us, because he could not build a house of his own. If it was not for poverty, all my children would be at school.
BURTE ARBA'S YOUNGER SON [foreign language with subtitles]: If you ask me why I don't want to become a coffee farmer, my grandfather who was a coffee farmer got minimal reward for his work. My father who toils until his back breaks can't get a fair price for his coffee and generate sufficient cash to meet the demands of his family. It has trapped him in the hardships of life. And me also.
ALEMAYEHU ABRAHIM [foreign language with subtitles]: For as long as the coffee price goes up and down the school will continue to be affected in very many ways. We can't even afford to buy blackboards and I doubt if we can pay the salary of our teachers in the near future.
TADESSE MESKELA [English with subtitles]: It's amazing, all coffees are here, but ours is not. No Ethiopian coffee at all. I am very sad because it reminds me of my farmers, they are desperate and they are getting a very low price - their daily income is very, very low. Here is our coffee here Mocha Sidamo. This is Mocha Sidamo. It took me a long time to get my coffee you see, it is just hidden behind. Our hope is one day the consumer will understand what he is drinking and will ask these people who are not having fair trade coffees to pay us a fair price. This is our hope. The consumers can bring a change if awareness is given to consumers to ask for more fair trade products. It is not only on coffee, all products which are coming from the third world are getting a very low price, and the producers are highly affected and the British people have to think of the people producing bananas as well as coffee and other products which are suffering from the low price.

BURTE ARBA [foreign language with subtitles]: We are cutting down the coffee trees. The plot I am working on now is a small plot and I am going to destroy a larger and more beautiful coffee plot and replace it with chat because the price of chat is higher than that of coffee.
BURTE ARBA [foreign language with subtitles]: I am not free to move to other plots elsewhere. This is the fixed plot I am entitled to use by the state. I belong here and my plot of land is not suitable for other plants or crops I know of. I cannot easily shift to farming other crops or plants. We don't chew chat. There are people who need it out of addiction. We need the cash. Chat fares better than coffee in terms of price - that is why we grow it - money is our incentive. We are not planting these small chat trees out of choice. It's out of desperation, we want to avoid death.
TADESSE MESKELA [English with subtitles]: This area is rich in coffee production, so most of the farmers in this district are tending to produce chat side by side with coffee. This is the distribution centre of chat for this district. You can see a lot of people selling and buying chat. He asked 35 birr for this and this one is asking 30. He said 50 and I negotiated and they said 30 birr for this. 30 birr for this which is about 4 US dollars. As you can see it is not more than 20 branches. It is not more than 20 branches so they get 30 birr for this and they harvest it twice a year and they are getting a better income. He said it makes me happy. It gives me strength and it makes me happy, he said. We are one of the poorest countries in the world so there is no subsidy. We don't have the kind of subsidies which is made by the rich countries like the UK and many other European countries. That is why the world trade is unfair because there are subsidies for all the milk production and other productions in the developed world while we the poor countries do not have money to subsidize the farmers. That is why we are looking at low prices for our producers. That is why we can not compete in the world market growing crops.
HEGER GOUTIER (French with subtitles): Agriculture and development are not only important for us, they are laid down in the agenda. Here, we're observers. We can't intervene to help our negotiations. We don't have an office here. We have to squat in rooms. That's what we have to cope with. We want to maximize our capabilities on an intellectual, practical and material level so we can participate effectively in these negotiations.
