coffee plantations
Coffee plantations are large farms where coffee beans are grown. These plantations typically thrive in tropical climates, where conditions such as altitude, temperature, and rainfall are ideal for coffee plants. The most common species cultivated are Coffea arabica and Coffea canephora, known as Arabica and Robusta coffee, respectively.
Workers on coffee plantations often engage in various tasks, including planting, pruning, and harvesting the coffee cherries. Once harvested, the cherries are processed to extract the beans, which are then dried, roasted, and prepared for sale. Coffee plantations play a crucial role in the global coffee industry, providing a significant source of income for many farmers.
