GROWTH OF COFFEE IN INDIA

[abhishreshthaa]

Coffee, which was brought in India by a Muslim pilgrim, BABA Budan on his return from Mecca, remained as a backyard plant until sometime. Later, it was developed into gardens. However, it was in 1820's that the commercial plantation was opened in south India with British enterprises and investment. The cultivation of coffee rapidly progressed during next 40 years. In 1856 there were only 7 British planters in Mysore. By 1869, their numbers had increased to 662 owing 8094 hectares of the total cultivated area of 58670 hectares. Indian coffee soon established itself as outstanding in quality and became a commodity 2nd to none in the world market. India at present has about 350000 hactares of cultivated land of which Arabica accounts for 40% and robusta for 60%
