Correct answer: C
Karnataka is the largest producer of coffee in India, contributing about 65–70% of the total coffee production. The main coffee-growing regions are Coorg (Kodagu), Chikmagalur, and Hassan districts, which have suitable climate and elevation for coffee cultivation. India mainly grows two types of coffee — Arabica and Robusta — with Karnataka producing both in large quantities.
