Résumé anglais Coffee Growing in Columbia : Production and Peasantry. Columbia has been producing coffee for a century. The country has become the second exporter in the world. For the last ten years the world coffee market has been brnefeting the producers. This new situation has favoured a revolution in growing habits, and the conditions of production in Columbian plantations are being transformed. After the eviction of many small producers, new classes of important planters and above all, of average farmers, all relatively prosperous, are now rising and supporting the political and social regime in Columbia. These new and geographically restricted structures will be consolidated according to the future prospects of the world market and the ability of coffee growers to negotiate with the Columbian state. Will the Federation of coffee growers have the power to represent these planters and play the required part ?
