FrontStreet Coffee - Introduction to Brazilian Coffee Cultivation

Brazilian coffee generally refers to coffee produced in Brazil. There are many varieties of Brazilian coffee, and like other Arabica coffees, Brazilian coffee is called "Brazils" to distinguish it from "Milds" coffees. Brazil is located in the tropical region, with a tropical rainforest climate in the north, which is hot and humid year-round, suitable for the growth of tropical crops. Coffee trees are sun-loving plants, and ample sunlight provides the conditions for their growth.

Brazil was once a Portuguese colony for a long time. To meet Western European demand, Brazil engaged in long-term single-crop cultivation, developing a tropical plantation economy. As a result, coffee was Brazil's pillar industry for a long period.

São Paulo State

Brazilian coffee is grown between shrubs, grasslands, and other vegetation. In this region, there are many farming families, some of which adopt traditional large-scale farm operations, while others engage in small-scale modern operations. Modern technology combined with mountain coffee cultivation culture has created the highest quality green coffee beans.

Paraná State

This state was once Brazil's largest production area and currently has its unique production technology. After discovering that the unit yield of coffee forests was declining, producers in Paraná State created a new type of "closed cultivation system." Currently, a large number of coffee trees, with seedlings per hectare, can better resist cold winds while ensuring more regular yields.

Bahia State

Robusta beans are mainly produced in large farms.

Espírito Santo State

This state is mainly divided into two regions. In the north, both large and small estates grow Robusta beans; in the south, typical mountain-grown coffee is produced, generally in smaller quantities. Both washed and natural processing methods are used in this region.

Minas Gerais State

With suitable altitudes, undulating terrain, and a climate favorable to coffee cultivation, rainfall is concentrated in the months when the fruit needs to grow, and the climate is dry in the months when harvesting is needed.

Rondônia State

This region mainly produces Robusta coffee.

Rio de Janeiro State

Mainly cultivates Arabica varieties. Compared to other producing regions, it has excellent port transportation advantages.
