Brazil is mainly divided into two parts, one is the Brazilian plateau above 500 meters above sea level, mainly concentrated in the central and southern part of the country, and the other part is the plain below 200 meters above sea level, mainly in the north and west of the Amazon River basin. Among them, the plateau accounts for 60% of the country's area, and there are three major river systems: Amazon, Parana and San Francisco.

Most of Brazil is tropical, with a tropical rain forest climate in the north, a savanna climate in the central part and a subtropical monsoon humid climate in the south. The average annual temperature in the Amazon plain is 2528 ℃, and the average annual temperature in the south is 16,19 ℃.

Coffee producing area

There are 26 states in Brazil, of which 17 produce coffee, of which Parana, Sao Paulo, Milas Gerais and Esp í rito Santo account for 90% of the total production. Brazil's Arabica accounts for 80% of the total production and the remaining 20% is Robusta, of which the main varieties are Bourbon, Kaduai, iron pickup, new world, etc., all harvested from May to September.

Parana (Bahia): many people would think it is the southernmost coffee region in the world. Although the state accounts for only 2.5% of Brazil's area, it produces 25% of the crops. But the state lacks high-altitude areas, with the highest elevation of only 950 meters, so there is little high-quality coffee.

S â o Paulo: here is Mojiana, Brazil's famous coffee producing area, with rugged terrain and red sandy soil rich in minerals, which is very suitable for growing coffee. On the front street, there is a Brazilian Queen's Manor, which is a yellow bourbon bean seed. It is treated in half-sun and boiled with a KONO filter cup at 1:15 to have the sweet, black tea, nutty and chocolate flavor of sugarcane.

The state of Minas Gerais: located in southeastern Brazil, it has some of the highest mountains in the country, and the relatively famous sub-regions of Syracuse and South Minas are in this state. Many coffee plantations in this state have a relatively large area, so most of them use machinery for farming and harvesting, accounting for 30% of the Brazilian Arabica varieties, at an altitude of 700-1350 meters.

Esp í rito Santo (Espirito Santo): this area is small compared to other coffee producing areas. Victoria, the capital, says it is the main export port. 80% of the area grows Robusta, and only farmers in the south of the area tend to grow Arabica. It is 90-1200 meters above sea level.
