Farm level story
Ricardo Alberto Reyes is the owner of Finca Potrerios, a farm covering 14 manzanas in San Ignacio of the Chalatenango region. Ricardo cultivates 4200 coffee trees of the Obata and Pacamara variety. He specializes in honey processing. He dry-ferments the coffee for 16 hours to partially remove mucilage, and dries the coffee on raised beds for over two weeks and then dries the seeds on raised beds.
The Moose
The moose (pl.: 'moose'; used in North America) or elk (pl.: 'elk' or 'elks'; used in Eurasia) (Alces alces) is the only species in the genus Alces. The moose is the tallest, and the second-largest, land animal in North America, only falling short of the American bison, in terms of mass. It is the world's tallest, largest and heaviest extant species of deer. Most adult male moose have broad, palmate ("open-hand shaped") antlers; other members of the deer family have antlers with a dendritic ("twig-like"), pointed configuration. Moose inhabit the circumpolar boreal forests or temperate broadleaf and mixed forests of the Northern Hemisphere, thriving in cooler, temperate areas as well as subarctic climates.
