Bag Sampling Cambodia Robusta: How Importers Build a Representative Composite Sample

A composite sample should reflect the lot rather than the easiest bags to reach. Importers can reduce sampling bias by selecting bags across positions and combining comparable increments.

Plan the pattern before sampling

Use a documented method for selecting bags. Avoid changing the pattern because one bag looks better or worse.

Keep sub-samples when investigating variation

If odor, moisture, or appearance differs strongly, preserve individual bag samples before combining everything.

Label every sample

Date, lot code, bag position, and sampler name make later investigation much easier.
