Irrigated coffee in Bahia, in the Brazil's Northeast The first coffee plants in Brazil were planted in the northern state of Pará in the 1700s. The climate was favorable and the dimensions of the country contributed for cultivation of the product to spread rapidly. Coffee soon reached the southeastern states of Rio de Janeiro, Espírito Santo, São Paulo and Minas Gerais and the southern Paraná.

Those Brazilian land-owners and their peasant-killing squads make me sick....it's sad that my coffee money end up in those criminals' pockets

Sir, with all due respect, I think the facts are otherwise. Coffee has been a great boon in Bahia for the workers, and they certainly need the work. I have been in that area recently, December, yes, out in the interior. The robber barons you read about and which I refer to in another thread are not so much coffee related, but in the area of clearing forest and planting other crops and especially pasture grass for cattle. Certain areas of Rio Grande do Norte also plant coffee and I have never heard of inhuman conditions there any more than living out there at all is somewhat a challenge. The indentured conditions tend to be in newer, sparsely occupied areas under the chainsaw for cattle ranch development. Their isolation is precisely why many get by with it.

What are you talking about you american or european bashing vulture. When it comes to development nd change for good in Brazil whey do you always have to bash and bring down any effort or good achievement in Brazil. I bet you are in this site like many other vultures to blame brazilians and Brazil for everything they do. Wha about all of those companies that come to Brazil to "invest" in the country since decades ago but always evaded money and market from here, what about american government with its political maneuvering practices to prevent brazilian projects from budding like missile technology, nuke technology and other. Tell your government innocent killing squad to back off from other people's land and shut up.

Rondonia web
written by James Hayes-Bohanan, November 01, 2007
Thank you for this article. Just today, I learned from a Brazilian colleague that Rondonia is an important source of coffee. I considered myself pretty well-informed about both coffee and Rondonia, so this came as quite a surprise. I am delighted to have this detailed explanation! In addition to my Rondonia web page, I invite you to see my coffee page at http://webhost.bridgew.edu/jha...eGeog.htm.
