The immune system of the plants is damaged from the seemingly non-stop supply of heat and makes them susceptible to preying insects and pests. |

| − | + | Several factors are considered before coffee can be given an organic certification such as the kind of fertilizer used. In a natural farm, it needs to be ONE HUNDRED % natural made from coffee pulp, general compost, chicken manure, and bocachi, among other materials.

The USDA has their representatives see coffee farms and production sites to confirm whether they should be issued an organic certification. For a farm to be organically certified, it must not use chemicals on crops for the next three years preceding the harvest due for certification. This makes sure that only crops grown as organic coffee can lay claim to its condition as "ONE HUNDRED % natural.". |

Workers who are exposed to them acquire medical conditions which they or else would not have developed if these substances were non-toxic. Beans that were sprayed are water washed after they are harvested, sending the water with the toxins washed off from the beans to rivers, lakes, streams or whatever water source it originated from; this water will even be used to irrigate the soil once again. | Workers who are exposed to them acquire medical conditions which they or else would not have developed if these substances were non-toxic.
