Nowadays the main crop planted on the Estate is Coffee which is cultivated in an area of 312 hectares with a total area of 432 hectares. It has an extension of 152 hectares of artificial forest which consists of Bamboo trees and Eucalyptus mainly. There are other precious wood trees with longevity from 5 to 400 years of existence as well as wild life as there is a Forest area which is protected at all times.

Another part of the Estate has cultivable area for corn, bean and bamboo. For protection of erosions in the fields we use Izote which is a good source of plant that helps to keep the soil together and strong for rainy season. In the Estate a tree called “Copalchi” is used for protection of the coffee plants from strong winds so it works as a wind barrier for certain areas in the farm.
