Indonesia
In 1895, the first cooperative in Indonesia was established on Java island by students. This was greatly opposed by the Dutch Government, because it's signaled an independence away from colonial policy. On the 12th of October 2017, the Java Mountain Women's Coffee Cooperative was the first all-women farmer membered cooperative to be legally established in Indonesia's cooperative history.
Indonesia is the third largest producer of coffee in the world - 8.8% of the world's coffee.
