Coffea Species (Coffee)

  • Chapter
Trees IV

Part of the book series: Biotechnology in Agriculture and Forestry ((AGRICULTURE,volume 35))

Abstract

Coffee is a beverage appreciated all over the world, and therefore it is an important product in the international market, and generates a high income in the economy of several countries. The coffee-producing zones are in tropical and subtropical regions; the major coffee producers are: Brazil, Colombia, Indonesia, the Ivory Coast, Ethiopia, Mexico, Guatemala, Costa Rica, India, El Salvador, Uganda, Ecuador, Honduras, and the Philippines (data from FAO for 1992, Table 1).
