Qianjie-the three largest coffee growing areas in the world | brief introduction of coffee producing areas in Brazil

Brazil Brasil

Central and South America is the largest coffee producing area in the world, and the amount of output here obviously affects the price of raw coffee beans in the world. Among them, Brazilian coffee is the largest producing country in Central and South America, and the largest country in coffee production provides nearly 45% of the world's coffee raw bean production. The length of the dry season in the country may even affect coffee prices around the world. The main producing areas of Brazil are Minas Gerais Minas Gerais, S ã o Paulo Sao Paulo, Bahia Bahia and Esp í rito Santo Espirito Santo, which account for 90% of the country's exports. Our common Santos Santos and Mochiana Mogiana come from S ã o Paulo. Sirado Cerrado and South Minas Sul de Minas in Minas Gerais, because of their high altitude, produce high-quality Brazilian coffee beans. Silado is located on the west side of Minas Gerais. For a flat plateau, 750m~1200m above sea level.

The hilly woodland of 700m-1200m in South Minas is the earliest coffee production area in Brazil. Due to the increase in labor costs, it is now mostly harvested mechanically, and it is also the earliest commercialized area of coffee. We can see that many large exporters are also here. Bahia, located in the north of Brazil, mainly produces washing Brazil, and Espiritu Santo, near the seaside, is the main export area of Brazilian Robusta varieties. In Brazil, there are water washing, honey treatment and sun treatment, but the most common is the sun treatment.

The Brazilian grading system, which scores the proportion, size, flavor and taste of defects, is its own independent grading system, which is more complex than that from other countries. For example, the "Brasil Santos NY2 SC17/18 SS FC" NY2 classifies the proportion of defects: the higher the number, the greater the proportion of defects. The order is 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4... NY says it is based on the New York rating standard. SC 17A 18 represents the number of coffee beans. While SS FC (Strictly Soft and Fine Cup) represents flavor and taste, it is divided into two groups: first Strictly Soft, Soft, Softish, Hard, Hardish, Rioy/Rioysh, Rio second is Fine Cup and Good cup. Brazilian coffee is widely loved because of its high sweetness, cleanliness, softness and low acid value.

Knowledge expansion: Brazilian coffee producing area is obviously low above sea level, and the landform is flat, lack of microclimate, and no shade for planting coffee trees. Therefore, Brazil has a unique "soft bean" flavor.
