Cepea, January 14, 2022 – In spite of more favorable weather conditions in late 2021, the coffee sector in Brazil still expects a significant crop failure in 2022/23, scenario that may keep prices firm in 2022. Players surveyed by Cepea are uncertain about the intensity of this possible reduction in production; however, estimates are likely to be more accurate after the first months of this year, the filling period for coffee cherries.
Despite the positive biennial cycle for arabica crops in 2022/23, the dry weather in most part of the development period and frosts in the winter of 2021 affected plants, leading to flower abortion in some cases in many regions surveyed
