The Malabar Coast of Kerala witnessed the arrival of Arabs, Chinese, and European powers like the Portuguese, the French and the British. The spices of Kerala had become the most precious and traded commodity.


The warm, humid climate of central Kerala, the hazy hill stations with their loamy soil rich in organic matter and a reasonable amount of rainfall contribute to the production of spices in Kerala.
