    Where does coffee come from?

    Question #27988. Asked by none. (Feb 11 03 4:33 PM)

    		Native to Ethiopia, this crop is now grown around the world and is a major commodity in the world economy. The principal species, Coffea arabica, thrives at high elevations in a moist, mild climate where there is partial shade. That's why most of the big coffee producers are located in mountainous countries near the equator.
