Indian Coffee | October 2020 1 2 Indian Coffee | October 2020 Coffee Times From the Secretary's desk Coffee Times ear Readers, It gives me immense pleasure to extend warm greetings to Dentire coffee fraternity of the country on the occasion of International Coffee Day - 2020. It’s very much gratifying to note that International Coffee Day is celebrated annually on October 1st with spirit and sentiment to promote Coffee as a beverage and educate people about its history, benefits, and popularity. It is a celebration of the coffee sector’s diversity, quality and passion. International Coffee Day also provides an opportunity for coffee lovers to share their love of the beverage and support the millions of farmers whose livelihoods depend on the aromatic crop. Each year, the International Coffee Organization (ICO) declares a specific theme of focus for celebration of the event. The current year’s theme is “Coffee’s Next Generation” aimed at launching a Global initiative targeting to support talented and motivated young people and entrepreneurs in the coffee sector. The occasion is also expected to integrate their innovative ideas to benefit the whole coffee community in this crucial juncture when entire world is suffering from the Covid-19 pandemic. Keeping in view the ongoing pandemic, the Coffee Board organized the International Coffee Day 2020 celebration virtually. I am glad that nearly 300 stakeholders across the value chain participated in the virtual celebration and expressed their solidarity. This edition of the Indian Coffee brings you a brief report on celebration of International Coffee Day 2020 by the Coffee Board, for information of the readers. In the light of the severe devastation caused by the Coffee White Stem Borer (CWSB) on Arabica coffee, the Central Coffee Research Institute (CCRI) has been constantly working for evolving appropriate interventions for management of this dreaded pest in field situations. In addition, the institute has also implemented several collaborative research programmes on CWSB involving renowned national and international institutions. This issue also highlights the “Salient Outcomes of the Collaborative Research programmes on coffee white stem borer” for the benefit of the planters. It is a well known fact that Good Agricultural Practices (GAP’s) plays an important role for the production of quality coffee either by wet method or dry processing. In India, about 80% of Arabica and 20% of Robusta coffees are wet processed to produce parchment coffee. Starting from the correct stage of picking the uniformly ripened coffee cherries, the on-farm process of producing parchment coffee requires a set of standard agricultural practices. An article detailing good on-farm processing protocol for the production of quality coffee during wet processing is also included in this issue. The Regional Coffee Research Station (RCRS) Narasipatnam has participated in a three day International Web Conference on “Perspective on Agricultural and Applied Sciences in COVID-19 Scenario” (PAAS-2020) The efforts of Coffee Board in expansion of coffee area in the agency areas of Andhra Pradesh and also the initiatives undertaken for improving productivity, quality and livelihood of tribal holdings were briefly covered in the write up included in this issue. . Apart from the above, the regular features like Calendar of operations at estate level, Market watch with a focus on coffee market reports of ICO, global coffee prices, global consumption and exports as well as domestic market prices are covered. Dr. K. G. JAGADEESHA CEO & Secretary Indian Coffee | October 2020 3 Planters' World Research on coffee white stem borer – salient outcome of the collaborative programmes implemented by Central Coffee Research Institute with national and international institutions Seetharama H.G., Roobak Kumar A., Uma M.S., Krishna Reddy P and N. Surya Prakash Rao Central Coffee Research Institute, Coffee Research Station - 577117, Chikmagaluru District, Karnataka he coffee white stem borer (CWSB) is Tconfined only to South-East Asia and is not present in other major coffee producing regions, such as Central & South America and Africa. Therefore, India is the only country that has been battling this dreaded pest for over a century since it was first reported on Arabica coffee in 1838. The Central Coffee Research Institute (CCRI) is the only institute in the world that has been constantly working on this pest and has developed a vast resource of Plain glued trap Delta trap scientific information on the biology, behavior, host-pest interactions of this pest and also its response to the climatic factors that formed the basis for evolving appropriate interventions for management of the CWSB pest in field situations. Nevertheless, CCRI never missed any opportunity to access the expertise available across the country as well as continents and to implement collaborative research programmes on specific aspects of pest management. Some of these collaborative research initiatives Funnel trap Cross vane were instrumental in developing very useful Different traps evaluated for CWSB attraction technologies. As part of the relook at the research carried out on CWSB, in this article we white stem borer”, from 1996 to 1999. This tried to summarize the salient outcome of the project was funded by Centre for Agriculture collaborative research initiatives implemented and Bioscience International (CABI) and was by CCRI with several other research institutions undertaken with the objectives of identifying both at national and international level. and synthesising pheromones responsible for attracting adult beetles of CWSB. It was 1. “Identification of Pheromones of coffee white established that the male CWSB beetles produces stem borer” a collaborative project between the sex pheromone to attract the female beetles. CCRI and Natural Resources Institute (NRI), Analysis of the volatiles released from the University of Greenwich, UK adult males by gas chromatography (GC) CCRI and NRI jointly implemented the project linked to electroantennogram (EAG) showed “Identification of Pheromones of coffee three male-specific components comprising 4 Indian Coffee | October 2020 Planters' World more than 90% of the volatiles, two of which Influencing factors of CWSB incidence elicited EAG responses. The major EAG-active component was identified as (S)-2-hydroxy-3- Data collected from the study on the influence decanone. Subsequently, the synthesis pathway factors for CWSB incidence indicated that, the and the mass production of the identified male occurrence of the CWSB was recorded less at sex pheromone were also developed. The higher altitudes. The mixed shade is optimal, synthesized pheromone lures were extensively and the lower canopy shade is important to field tested in multiple locations, for their maintain the borer incidence at low level. The efficacy in attracting the CWSB females with mono shade especially with silver oak favours different kind of traps like Plain glued trap, the high incidence of borer attack. Delta trap, Funnel trap and Cross-vane trap. Life table studies Pheromone dispensers and release rates of (s)-2-hydroxy-3-decanone were also studied The extensive life table studies under this project under this project and polyethylene vials were revealed, there are two broods in the eggs laid found to be more suitable due to slow release of by the beetles emerging during the winter flight. the compound. Field trials were conducted for One completing in six months and the remaining over 4 years (nine flight periods) from 1997 to complete the life cycle in a year. 20 percent of 2001, covering Chikmagaluru, Hassan, Kodagu eggs laid during the winter develop into adults and Tamil Nadu in a total of 233 locations. by April-May and the rest by October-December. The cross-vanetraps with polyethylene vials as All the eggs laid during summer complete their dispensers for the pheromone were found to be development by six months and emerge during the most effective. Thus, based on the findings October-December. Considerable mortality of this study, pheromone technology has been occurs at the egg and larval stage.

Accordingly, during the project Among these, 148 isolates showed medium period, the biochemical variations in different efficacy and one isolate with Cry 3A gene showed arabica selections (Sln.6, Sln.5A, Sln.5B higher efficacy against CWSB grubs.

Meanwhile, scientists from IIHR and NBAII, Bangalore and NRC Banana, Trichy and the Coffee Board, which took part in the national dialogue, developed a short-term collaborative project titled “Eco-friendly Approaches for Management of Coffee White Stem Borer” to test some of the promising technologies developed at these ICAR institutes for their effectiveness against the white stem borer with a funding of Rs.20 lakhs from the Coffee Board.
