Growing conditions
What Shapes Thailand Coffee
Thailand’s structural reality
National output dominated by Robusta in the south (not specialty-relevant).
Arabica specialty is concentrated almost entirely in the northern mountains.
Farms are very small, often managed by hill-tribe communities.
Processing, quality control, and export are almost always company- or NGO-led.
Region matters because it predicts altitude, drying feasibility, and program maturity.

Thailand’s specialty core
Chiang Mai (Mae Taeng, Omkoi, Mae Chaem)
higher risk, higher variance
Nan / Phayao (eastern north)
emerging, fragile
Tak / Mae Hong Son (western border)
tiny volumes, logistics penalty
