Finally, value chain level indicators show an improvement
in processed (dry) coffee prices that is particularly strong for certified farms. Also cherry coffee prices increased, but far less
for non-certified farms. The amount of cherry coffee sold was
strongly reduced, while dry coffee sales remained fairly stable.
This indicates that certified farm-households were able to
improve their situation mainly through better prices for processed coffee, with declining differences between Utz and FT
certification but increasing margins compared to noncertified farm-households
