Colombian President Iván Duque signed into law a new fund late last week designed to support the country’s smallholder farmers in times of downward price shocks. The law comes just days after renowned global economist Jeffrey Sachs addressed the second World Coffee Producers Forum in Brazil, where he revealed preliminary results of new research suggesting the viability of creating an international fund to assist producers during times of price crisis.
