José Alejandro Romero, coffee farmer at Las Marias, Usulután, on his coffee farm. Two years ago he harvested 60 times more than the last two years, because of leaf rust, a fungal disease that has propagated with climate change. Carlos is growing cocoa in this nursery to replace coffee, as cocoa is more resistent to high temperatures and humidity.
