Contribution to the reconnaissance of the favourable zones for Robusta coffee (Coffea canephora Pierre) cultivation in South-Cameroon. In this study we have tried to give a global appreciation of the land suitability of Cameroon, South of the 7°N latitude, for Robusta coffee cultivation, based on an evaluation of climatic and pedological characteristics. The used method is based on the interpretation of these characteristics in function of the climatic and pedological requirements of the Robusta coffee, described in literature. These characteristics are quantified as to determine the FAO land classes. This classification has allowed us to establish suitability maps.
