KERTA SEMAYA SAMANIYA FARMERS

The KSS farmers’ cooperative is located in the Jembrana region of the island of Bali. Bali’s volcanic nature has contributed to its exceptional fertility, and its high mountain ranges provide the high rainfall that supports the highly productive agricultural sector.

In 2011, the farmers managed to grow the first organically certified cocoa in Southeast Asia. To make it more sustainable, cocoa is grown in an agroforestry system where the farmer combines multiple crops, such as fruits, coffee, and vegetables.
The main harvest is harvested from July to September and the secondary harvest from December to January. After harvesting, the beans are fermented for 6 days in two-tier wooden boxes and, if possible, dried on tables in the sun. The carefully selected beans are put in bags and shipped to the Netherlands.
