Solution(By Examveda Team)

Pollination behavior of Robusta coffee is Cross pollinated.
The Robusta coffee plant depends on cross pollination. Robusta requires cross-pollination by wind and insects. The main pollinators of coffee flowers are different kinds of bees. About 6 - 8 weeks after each coffee flower is fertilized, cell division occurs and the coffee fruit remains as a pin head for a period that is dependent upon the climate.
