When asked about his motivation, Triyono said enthusiastically: "It's not just about regular coffee.

He continues to bring added values to the Kerinci Arabica Specialty coffee through innovative processing methods and sustainable practices. For Triyono, it is not enough to do business as usual. It was Triyono's entrepreneurial spirit, his desire to keep learning, and the ability to share his knowledge and confidence with other farmers that made the Barokah Cooperative's specialty coffee well known throughout Indonesia and beyond. This morning, in celebration of International Youth Day, Triyono was invited to speak at an online seminar held by Jambi Agricultural Training Center of the Ministry of Agriculture, to share his experience on how young farmers and organizations can enter the international coffee market.

With the growing success of Barokah, Triyono has become an inspiration for many young farmers striving to succeed in the coffee sector. This month, the Barokah Cooperative will ship another 9,1 tons of coffee beans to Sucafina Australia.

In addition to consistently produce award-winning coffees, in July 2020 - through the collaboration between Rikolto, government institutions, private sector, and financial institutions - the Barokah Cooperative was able to directly export 15,9 tons of Arabica Specialty coffee to Sucafina Specialty in Antwerp, Belgium. The Barokah Cooperative also received the Bronze Gourmet at the Salon International de l'Agroalimentaire (SIAL) exhibition in Paris. In 2018, they won second place on the same contest and was invited by the Indonesian Embassy to Hanoi, Vietnam for a coffee exhibition. In their first year, the Barokah Cooperative won the first place at the Indonesian Specialty Coffee Contest in Jakarta. Rikolto has been supporting the members of Barokah Cooperative through various capacity building activities, including coffee cultivation and processing, sustainable agricultural practices, as well as improving their business capacities and expanding their market access. Since established in June 2017, the Barokah Cooperative was able to grow exponentially under Triyono's leadership.
