Coffee trees in Arabica need to be planted on sloping slopes at high altitude. they grow luxuriantly in the highlands (600,000Mel 1800m) and require special climatic conditions-an area with an average annual temperature of about 20 degrees Celsius and plenty of rainfall without frost. Only more than 50 countries in the world have such conditions, all of which are about 160 kilometers north and south of the equator.
