Data on
coffee sales by buyer indicated Soppexcca’s difficulty in increasing
its capture of raw material from its members. For organically certified
households, the mean percentage of coffee sold to Soppexcca
between 2007–2008 and 2008–2009 was 73%, while for conventional
producers, the mean percentage was 57% (Table 4). This suggests
that price was not the major factor behind selling to buyers
other than Soppexcca. Reponses presented below illustrate the
diversity of reasons. The most common response hinged on the
need to cover production expenses for the coffee harvest (n = 31).
In other cases, households identified emergencies and expenses
as the main reason for selling to other buyers (n = 8), poor quality
(n = 4), and restricted access to credit (n = 2). Below are quotes
from households in SDL
