Abstract
A survey was conducted to obtain information on post-harvest fungal infection of coffee beans at farmer, district and regency collector levels in Bengkulu province during the harvest period (April – May 2004). The number of coffee bean samples collected at farmers, district and regency collectors were 30, 15 and 15, respectively. Analysis were conducted to the moisture contents and isolation of post-harvest fungal infection of coffee beans. Result showed that rate mean of moisture contents of coffee beans at farmer level, district and regency collectors were 14.02, 13.74 and 13.43 % with the range of moisture contents of coffee beans at farmer level (10.14 – 18.58%) was broader than those of the district (10.49 – 16.51%) and regency (9.73 – 16.27%) collector levels. Seventeen, 13 and 15 fungal species have been isolated from coffee beans obtained from farmers, district and regency collectors, respectively. The dominant fungal species was Aspergillus niger. The percentage of samples infected by A. ochraceus (ochratoxin-producing fungus) at farmers, district and regency collectors were 23.3, 46.7 and 46.7%, respectively.
