Irma Pacheco Reyes tends a small farm she inherited from her father, just a short drive from her family's residence at Finca Palo de Quina. She is a busy woman - mother to four boys, a driving spirit and resistor to the mine at Escobal and proudly Xinka (her full bio is in our website's Producers section). This year's lot is a mix of washed and honey processed paché San Ramón, caturra and catimor - showing figs, citrus, buttery pastry and pistachio.
Increasingly, at harvest time, this region like so many others, has seen a dramatic fall in returning labourers as many are leaving their homes in the coffeelands for the cities or to attempt passing into the US. As labour is scarce, many producers aren't able to harvest their expected volume, fruit is not being picked in time - reduced volume obviously affects anticipated income. Necessary pruning dependent on scarce labour, becomes harder to conduct before the next flowering, perpetuating conditions more susceptible to leaf rust. The precarity is clear, as less is reinvested back into farm maintenance, plant and soil health, needed fertilization and infrastructure. This downward cycle affects subsequent harvest potential.
