Brazil is the largest coffee-growing country in the world, responsible for 30 percent of coffee grown worldwide, about 74 percent of which is Arabica. One of the most notable coffee regions in Brazil is Cerrado, in southwestern Minas Gerais. Cerrado is a vast tropical and subtropical biome that includes forests, marshlands and grassland. The name cerrado translates as closed, and the region remained so until the 1960s, when farmers began treating the soil. Over the years, the grasslands were transformed into agricultural and pasture land. Brazil Cerrado coffee is grown at altitudes of 900–1,250 meters above sea level. Plantations are large, ranging from 100 to 3,000 hectares, with tremendous output. The climate allows for extensive control at all levels of the production.
