| Descrição: | This article follows the paths of coffee cultivation in the Central Valley. The vigorous support from public authorities after Independence and the receptiveness of the seed by producers combined to create a new landscape in the ecumene of the four provinces. It is almost certain that the coffee seed settled in the same agricultural spaces as the colonial crops (tobacco, sugarcane, wheat, and corn) with planting beginning in San José and Cartago, and more slowly in Heredia and Alajuela, contributing to a rapid transformation of the economy, institutions, and customs, the effects of which would be fully felt in the 19th century. In this regard, one could recall the important role played by water in the processing of the fruit, a fundamental resource for the creation of the myth, «The Golden Grain». |
