India has 500 years history in coffee. It is cultivated in various regions of India like Hassan, Wayanad, Coorg, Chikmagulur, and Andhra Pradesh. However, there are a number of reasons because of which Indian market is considered as a small market for coffee cultivation.

In future its position will go more severe, if agricultural extension services will not be promoted in non-traditional areas. Moreover in future, use of biotechnology can also make India as an important coffee producer in the world .
