Okay :) I had expected to hear more about crop science which seems like it would be applied in coffee production with the climate challenges mentioned, but actually am not sure if it really is (even though I'm currently working on a project which has to do with it).

white papers vs a submarine PR article for cropster that aims to get a larger, mainstream audience on a tight deadline. They are two different things
There are free software projects attempting to solve the same problem in another corner of the ag industry

It really hurts to read an article with 10-minute intro. I can't even tell by the 20th paragraph what's going on.
