    Solution

    Karnataka is India's leading coffee producer, accounting for approximately 70% of the country's total coffee production. The regions of Kodagu (Coorg), Chikmagalur, and Hassan districts in Karnataka provide ideal climate and soil conditions for coffee cultivation. The state produces both Arabica and Robusta varieties of coffee. The other states mentioned primarily grow different crops: Haryana focuses on wheat, rice, and sugarcane; Assam is known for tea rather than coffee; and Madhya Pradesh cultivates wheat, soybean, and pulses.
