Pollibeta, Coorg

Pollibetta is an agricultural region in the mountains of Western Ghats. Pollibetta is famous for its coffee plantations. The estates are located on the Pollibetta and Ammathi Road. The head-quarters of Tata Coffee Estates are here and Tata has around 10,000 acres of plantation land on this area.

Though primarily these are coffee plantations but pepper, cardamom and vanilla are grown as inter-crops. In between the coffee plantations different tall trees are planted which are used as shade trees for the coffee plants. The place is known for the best coffee estates.

High quality coffee seeds are produced in this estate. Along with coffee, oranges are also grown. If coffee is missing then the fields are filled with rice. Tata Estates provide a 'heritage' bungalow accommodation called 'Plantation Trails' to the guests within these lush green coffee plantations. An old fort and a Buddhist temple are also located in this town. The whole town is green and beautiful.
