“This is an ‘on’ year for Brazilian coffee and the crop has been hit. Next year is ‘off’. So, you can imagine the situation,” said Anil K Bhandari, former president of the United Planters’ Association of Southern India.
Coffee is a crop whose production is good one year, called the ‘on’ year, and bad the next, called the ‘off’.
The damage to the current crop in Brazil is irreversible with the coffee growing areas going through one of the hottest periods in recent years.
“Prices will rule firm because from a surplus of about 3.5 million bags, we will see a deficit of at least four million bags,” said Bhandari.
