"Robusta coffee dried and stored over new homes for sale currently in need of money for various domestic purposes. Robusta coffee can be stored dry months and even years, "said Rasidin. 

Together robusta coffee, coffee plantations beginning in Takengon, highland community is also planting early varieties, namely, Jember and Ramong. After the era of Robusta, Jember and varieties Ramong, coffee plantations are now entering the decade Gayo Arabica coffee based preferred international coffee market. Dozens of varieties of Arabica, such as Super Ateng, Ateng Jaluk, teams, Borbor, East Timor Super and some other varieties, dominated plantation residents.
