Did you know that coffee, beans, and bananas can thrive together? Intercropping these three crops can be a game-changer for sustainable farming! Here's how: Beans fix nitrogen in the soil, enriching it for coffee trees Bean leaves fall, creating organic manure for the soil Banana trees provide shade, retaining moisture and reducing irrigation needs for coffee and beans When done strategically with proper spacing and timing, this trio can: Boost soil fertility Increase crop yields Conserve water Promote biodiversity Reduce at the cost of coffee farming Let's embrace this harmonious union and grow a more resilient and sustainable future for our coffee! #intercropping #sustainablefarming #coffeefarming #regenerativeagriculture"
