Coffee consumption plays an integral role in the day-to-day life of a working individual.

Changing Climatic Condition Hampering Yield and Resulting in Price Fluctuations

Changing weather conditions and worsening droughts on account of rising temperatures, minimum rainfall, and the lack of adequate irrigation systems have affected the coffee plantations across the various regions, particularly Brazil, which is also one of the largest producers of coffee. This has led to predicted degradation of the coffee plants – as the plants are yellow and damaged, and the beans are ruined. Owing to this, a large number of farmers engaged in the coffee plantation business have lost the majority of their crops and suffered losses. Due to which they are now willing to shift their crop focus from coffee to other crops as coffee plantation requires a significant amount of water. Prominent exporters of coffee are witnessing the fall in the production capacity, thereby resulting in the disruption of the demand and the supply chain across the globe market. Hence, leading to volatile raw material prices.

Demand Supply Overview

Coffee is majorly produced in developing economies such as Brazil, Ethiopia, Colombia, Vietnam, and India. Following 2015-16, the global production has always been higher than the demand, which has kept the coffee prices in control. The value chain of the market is somewhat similar across all the producing countries in the world. Producing countries are more focused on cultivation and the initial processing that is required for exporting.

Consuming countries have developed their factories and coffee houses domestically, where the final packaging along with roasting, cooling, blending, and grinding is carried out. This is expected to change in the coming years as developing economies are looking to increase their revenue by increasing value in their produce locally. Multi-national financial institutions such as the World Bank, IMF, and ICO are offering advice and loans for these countries keeping in mind the sustainability issues coffee production has.

Climate change, pollution, and other environmental factors such as deforestation, pesticide pollution, habitat destruction, soil, and water degradation are the cause of concern and can hamper the global coffee bean market growth in coming years. These institutions are working on a model based on people, planet, profit, and governance to keep the coffee business viable.

Due to the over-production of coffee, coffee prices have been decreasing, and COVID-19 somewhat accelerated it.

Europe is the largest importer of coffee in the world due to the minimum coffee production and significantly high consumption in the regional market. This demand for coffee in the regional market has been partly driven by the continuous growth of out-of-home consumption.
