How is studied about Economy Geography of Coffee.
When I want to research about some issue related with coffee world, I like a Geographer I choose a Study Object, always I need let very clear what I wish to study. It´s better have a specific good Case Study.
In the Economy Geography of Coffee we don´t worried about the coffe plant, because the coffee plant it´s worried to others scientists.
We economics geographers must be focus with how the activity producty of coffee it´s influencing the geographic space and how geographic space influence the coffee production. This way we observer all the things that appear this relantionship. It´s important to remark that the Human and the Social Justice are very relevant to Economy Geography study, always putting the enviroment issues together.
After that I choose my Case Study and I start the research using the methodologies that I developted in my book "Economic Geography: Permanences and Ruptures in the Analysis of Economic Activity in its Relationship with Geographic Space"
Let´s an example, I´ll use the Vulcanic Region of Poços de Caldas Plateau
1) localization ; The Vulcan Region of Poços de Caldas Plateau it´s located in the South of Minas Gerais State in Brazil, this region it´s so near of Campinas City end São Paulo City, arround two hundred kilometer.
2) reasons for that productive activity to be in that local; The Vulcanic Region of Poços de Caldas Plateau is an area compound for many parts of higlands and balanced temperatures and humity this elements are excellents to produce Arabica Coffee
3) what are the mutual influences of productive activity in the Space and Space Geographic in the productive activity; This coffee production it´s very tradicional actitivity in this area, this regiona there are many structures to mantain and improve this coffee work, mainly to produce Specilty Coffee
4) To Define the Time and Scale of study; The research it´s in the Vulcanic Region of Poços de Caldas Plateau, this area is formed by twelve cities and the study has an overview about two decades.
5) what relationship between of Local scale, Regional scale and Global scale.
