　　   Zhenkang Coffee is a specialty of Zhenkang County, Lincang City, Yunnan Province.

　　   The county has fertile soil and enjoys unique resources and advantages for growing and developing the coffee industry, with suitable planting area exceeding 200,000 mu. In the mid-1990s, driven by Yunnan Province’s implementation of the “18 Bio-Resource Development Projects,” the county’s coffee industry began to take shape. By the end of 2011, the county had developed 25,000 mu of coffee plantations, with about 10,000 mu in production, yielding 5,400 tons of coffee. There were two rough processing plants for coffee, capable of processing 20,000 tons of fresh coffee cherries annually, generating an output value of 45 million yuan.
