The second model is farmers to large collectors, coffee traders, and final consumers. The third model is from farmers to large collectors, factory exporters, and foreign markets. The first supply chain model has the smallest margin value and the highest farmer share because the marketing channel is quite short, and the marketing costs incurred by the collectors are minimal. The third supply chain model has the largest margin value and the lowest farmer share because the marketing costs are widely accepted by collectors and exporter factories. Based on this analysis, the most efficient model of the coffee supply chain in Southeast Malang is from farmers to collectors, coffee traders, and final consumers.
