A boon for Indian farmers -
The Coffee Busa Act is a landmark piece of legislation that has had a significant impact on the Indian coffee industry. Enacted in [1942], the act was designed to improve the quality of coffee beans produced in India and to protect the interests of coffee farmers. This act was mainly passed during World War II to protect the coffee industry from the war's economic downturn. The act's main objectives are to:
- Ensure the quality and purity of coffee
- Promote the interests of coffee growers and traders
- Develop the coffee industry in and around India.

Prior to the Coffee Busa Act, the Indian coffee industry was largely unregulated. This led to a number of problems, including the production of low-quality coffee beans and the exploitation of coffee farmers. The Coffee Busa Act helped to address these problems by establishing a set of standards for coffee production. These standards ensure that coffee beans produced in India are of a high quality and meet the expectations of consumers.
The Coffee Busa Act has also had a positive impact on the lives of coffee farmers. The act has helped to ensure that farmers receive a fair price for their crops. This has led to increased incomes for coffee farmers and has helped to improve their livelihoods.
