Arabica (Arabica): also known as Arabian variety, named because it is native to the Arabian Peninsula (one said to be native to Ethiopia), its caffeine content is 1% Muth1.7%, only half that of Robbda, so it is also healthier. Its branches include Picard, Bourbon, Jamaica Blue Mountain and so on. Arabikado grows between 900m and 2000 meters above sea level; it is cold-resistant, and the suitable growth temperature is 15mur24 ℃; it needs more humidity, and the annual rainfall is not less than 1500 milliliters; at the same time, it also requires high cultivation techniques and conditions. however, because of its fast growth rate, delicate quality and rich flavor, it has always been the largest variety in production and sales in the world, accounting for about 70% of the world's output. The largest producer of Arabica coffee is South America. Brazil, Colombia, Jamaica and other major coffee producing areas in the world, the variety produced is Arabica. In addition, it is also planted in Ethiopia, Tanzania, Angola, Kenya, Papua New Guinea, Hawaii, the Philippines, India, Indonesia and other places. Robsta (Robusta): Congo, which originated in Africa, has a strong bitter taste, poor flavor, no sour taste, its flavor is bitterer than Arabica, its quality is much lower, and the price is low, so it is mostly used to make instant coffee or blended coffee. Robusta's caffeine content is 2% Mur4.5%, about twice as much as Arabica coffee. Robstado grows in the lowlands at 200-600m above sea level and likes warm climates. the temperature is 24-29 ℃, and the requirement for rainfall is not high. However, the variety depends on insects or wind to pollinate, so it takes 11 months from pollination to fruit, which is longer than the Arabica species. Robusta is mainly grown in Southeast Asia, central and western Africa and Brazil, and currently accounts for about 1% of the world's total output. Because the variety is adaptable to the environment, not easy to be attacked by diseases and insect pests, easy to manage and low price, the yield has a trend of increasing year by year.
