Aiming of selecting generations of Arabic coffee plants adapted to different coffee regions of the state of Minas Gerais, experiments were conducted in the cities of Três Pontas, Campos Altos and Capelinha. Thirty three progenies from the “Mundo Novo” cv. were evaluated obtained by the genetic improving program of the coffee plants led by the Instituto Agronomico in Campinas. The experiments were carried out in randomized complete block design with four repetitions and six plants by parcel. The yield analysis were performed conjoint for the three sites and six crops. The adaptability and stability of the individual features were evaluated applying the methodology proposed by Annicchiarico (1992), estimating the Confidence Index (Ii) and defining as environment the combination between each biennal and each place, that is, nine environments. The parameters fruit maturation stage, floating grains bean/ fruit and bean size were carried out considering the medium of the last two crops, in Três Pontas. The most promising are the IAC 2931, IAC 379-19, IAC 480, IAC 388-6-16 and IAC 379-19-2 because they showed higher stability in the environments and were among the most productive ones in the average of the nine environments, obtaining higher confidence indexes. The progenies IAC 515-8, IAC 501 12, IAC 464 15 have the best percentages of fruit maturation stage, floating grains bean/fruit and bean size.
