Q. Which of the following statements about the cultivation of tea and coffee is true?
Answer: Tea grows at a higher altitude than coffee
Notes: Tea requires a temperature ranging from 21°C to 29°C. Tea grows well in the regions which receive rainfall in between 150-200 cm. The soil should be well drained. However, stagnant water damages the tea crops.
Coffee plantations require a temperature ranging between 25°C to 30°C. Rainfall should range between 150-200 cm. Coffee plants should be protected from direct sunlight. Hence many trees are planted in between the coffee crop to provide shade to the plant.
