Coffee Production in Brazil (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Coffee production in Brazil is responsible for about a third of all coffee, making Brazil by far the world's largest producer, a position the country has held for the last 150 years. In 2007, 2,249,010 metric tonnes was produced, 80% of it was arabica(species of coffee). Although Brazil is the world's largest coffee producer, Brazilian firms do not dominate the international coffee industry. The country's domestic coffee market is dominated by two US coffee processors, Sara Lee and Kraft Foods.
