In the article Toward sustainable coffee production in Vietnam: More coffee with less water, Vietnam is the second largest coffee producer after Brazil and it also the second national export after rice. Vietnam’s dependence on coffee production is particularly high especially since it is becoming a national aesthetic. “Vietnamese coffee” is slowly being more widely known as good quality coffee. Vietnam focus now is on increasing output and this article proposes an irrigation plan during the crucial dry months from January to April. To do this it is proposed to find the CWU or the consumptive water use and irrigation water withdrawals in Dak Lak province. Results showed that induced water stress during these 3 months can provide higher green bean yield. Water supply from this crucial period is significant for an ensured yield increase. Irrigation is essential because rainfall provides only 25% total ETc between January and April. To achieve this farmers would need to be educated and given strict scheduling. This would need proper government backing as the greater population of farmers and public awareness to be achieved. To do this Vietnamese coffee should be labeled as form high class and the #1 vietnamese product
. 
Question: Can vietnamese coffee be personalized and become unique enough to be identified as Vietnamese coffee?
