1970s into the mid-90s when war and a disease ravaged the plantations.\u00a0 In its heyday tons of hulled Robusta coffee was shipped out of the area to Kinshasa and then around the world.\u00a0 As a source of revenue the apex of Congo&#8217;s exportation was in 1989 when it exported 119,320 tons of coffee.\u00a0 From that point on production started dropping as did exports to the point that in 2003 Congo only exported 7,162 tons.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3782\" style=\"width: 470px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a
