    Sensory quality of out-of-home coffees in Sao Paulo, Brazil
    (Instituto de Tecnologia de Alimentos – ITAL, 2017) Pino, Francisco Alberto; Vegro, Celso Luís Rodrigues; Assumpção, Roberto de
    A field study was carried out in the largest Brazilian city in order to evaluate the quality of coffee prepared and sold for out-of-home consumption, using a logit model. It was shown that the decision on coffee quality was taken by the coffee house owner or manager based on his perception of the socio-economical class of the consumers, the prevalent gender, the participation of coffee in the invoicing and the coffee brewing method.

    Determinant factors in adopting socio-environmental certifications in coffee farms
    (Sociedade Brasileira de Economia e Sociologia Rural, 2014) Silva, Eduardo Cesar; Castro Junior, Luiz Gonzaga; Costa, Cássio Henrique Garcia; Andrade, Fabrício Teixeira
    Certified coffee production is an opportunity for the grower to differ his product. However, the number of certified producers is still relatively small. In order to contribute to the dissemination of accreditation among farmers, the objective of this study is to identify the factors that determine its adoption, based on a sample of certified and non-certified growers from the south of Minas Gerais, Brazil. Quantitative data were analyzed through logistic regression. Results showed that five variables were significant in explaining the certification adoption: grower’s age; role of coffee in family income; attending courses and events; computer use in the farm and crop yield. These results expand the existing knowledge about coffee certifications and can guide actions to increase the number of certified producers.
