Detailed Solution

The major coffee-producing state marked on the map is Tamil Nadu.
The traditional coffee-growing region of India comprises the south Indian states of Kerala, Tamil Nadu, and Karnataka. The humid tropical climate in these regions is the best for growing fine-quality coffee. The Western Ghats acting as a barrier to the monsoons, ensure abundant rainfall of 100 to 200 cm required for coffee cultivation. The abundance of banana plantations is a blessing since the coffee plants can be grown in their shades. The hill slopes like that of the Nilgiris are used for cultivating coffee. Waterlogging harms the plant, which is why slopes are best for their growth. The northeast hilly states also have coffee cultivation.
