densely planted coffee bushes


Explanation:
According to the agency, the densely planted coffee bushes grown in full sun produce more bean than that of the shade grown varieties, leading coffee farmers in Central and South America, in search of USAID funding, to abandon shade trees for the yields of sun grown coffee. Unfortunately, the increase of technified farms has required more artificial inputs, such as pesticides and chemicals, in order for the farms to survive.
