IPR 107

IPR 107 was developed in the southern Brazillian state of Paraná to combine resistance to coffee leaf rust and dwarf size with the wide adaptability and “rusticity” come from it’s parents, Iapar 59 x Mundo Novo. The crossing program to create IPR 107 began in 1982 at the Instituto de Desenvolvimento Rural do Paraná (IDR-PR, formerly IAPAR). At the time of its release in 2010, it exhibited high resistance to coffee leaf rust, which has been further validated in the International Multilocation Variety Trial, a network of global testing sites for coffee varieties. In Brazil, where it is most commonly grown in Parana, it is recommended for semi-dense, dense and super dense planting systems and for machine harvesting.
