To ensure even more the quality of the grains, before harvesting the floor around and under the plant is lined, in order to isolate those grains that fall to the  soil and avoid  the possibility of fermentation and contamination of  the beans, which due to moisture can cause damage and compromise the quality of the grains. In general, the beginning of the harvest takes place in the second week of May and goes until the end of August.
