José Gumilla, a Jesuit priest, is credited with introducing coffee into Venezuela, in 1732. Its production is attributed to the large demand for the product, coupled with cheap labour and low land costs.It was first exported to Brazil.Coffee production in Venezuela led to the “complex migration” of people to this region in the late nineteenth century.Though Venezuela was ranked close to Colombia at one time in coffee production, by 2001, it produced less than one percent of the world’s coffee. Coffee production occurs in the Coast Range and the western Andean region with the only requirements being sufficient top soil and moisture.The coffee production system followed in the Andes region, which is the premontane moist forest, is a multilayered system (3 to 4 layered canopies) in which there are multi-species of plants. In this system, trees provide the shade needed for growth of coffee.This region is a part in the three geographical regions of Venezuela namely, the Mountains and Caribbean Coastal region, the Llanos region, and the Orinoco River Delta region, and the Guayana region. The plantations are generally in the attitudinal range of 1,000–5,000 feet (300–1,520 m), bordering with Colombia.The fertile region in the highland areas consisted of Táchira, Mérida, and Trujilo, known as the Andean frontier region, and are suitable for growing coffee which could be exported from the Maracaibo’s port. This resulted in increased production of coffee in the 19th century. The “Maracaibos” coffee exported from the Maracaibo port has sub varieties called Cucuta, Mérida, Trujillo, and Tachira. The eastern mountains coffee is known as Caracas, named after the capital city.While these are the local varieties of coffee grown in Venezuela, the basic universal coffee varieties under which the Venezuelan one fall under are the arabica (Coffea arabica L.)
