Shaded Coffee and Cocoa : Double Dividend for Biodiversity and Small-scale Farmers (2017, background): “These predicted dynamics are reflected in Gobbi (2000), who demonstrates that capital requirements for organic shaded systems are low and that these requirements increase with reduction in shade cover.”
Do fair trade and eco-labels in coffee wake up the consumer conscience? (2005, background): “Although there are no previous studies analyzing the consumer demand for fair trade products, there are other studies that deal with the issue of fair trade or shade grown coffee from an industrial organization perspective, analyzing the financial viability of farms, or policy-making implications (s”

Pest reduction services by birds in shade and sun coffee in Jamaica (2010, background): “Market values offer a modest economic incentive for the retention of traditional cultivation techniques via environmentally labeled premium-priced coffees, but additional incentives are needed for farmers to retain shade trees (Gobbi, 2000; Perfecto et al., 2005).”

Environmental-economic benefits and trade-offs on sustainably certified coffee farms (2017, background): “Conversely high biodiversity/tree carbon systems may be an option to maintain low-investment 394 systems that are still economically productive; many farmers in developing countries are limited in 395 their access to financial resources to increase productivity (Gobbi 2000).”
Profits and poverty: Certification's troubled link for Nicaragua's organic and fairtrade coffee producers (2011, background): “The changes in consumerdemandandpolicy thinkinghave led to a growing body of literature investigating the effects of environmental and social certification standards on environmental indicators like tree, mammal, bird, and butterfly species (Gobbi, 2000; Gordon et al., 2007; Philpott et al., 2007) a”
Economic Evaluation of Pollination Services Comparing Coffee Landscapes in Ecuador and Indonesia (2006, background): “Net revenues and market price changes Coffee growers are interested in net revenues (i.e., profits), rather than gross revenues because the former reflect the actual net contribution to household incomes (Gobbi 2000).”
