History & Heritage
The Coorg Orange, originally introduced from Central India around 300 years ago, has become a key part of Karnataka's agricultural scene. The unique terrain of Kodagu, with its hilly landscape, well-drained soil, and ample rainfall, contributes to the distinct qualities of these oranges, such as their longer shelf life. Coorg oranges symbolize the abundant agricultural heritage and diverse farming practices of Karnataka.
