Urgency to Act: How Climate Conditions are Driving Coffee Prices to Skyrocket

Brazil, the world's largest coffee exporter, is facing unprecedented challenges. Climate conditions, such as severe droughts and irregular rainfall, are wreaking havoc on coffee crops. This adversity is reducing yields and threatening the supply of specialty coffee, driving prices higher.

Brazil is experiencing the longest and most severe period of drought since the 2015 drought. This is the conclusion of the National Center for Monitoring Natural Disasters (Cemaden), an agency linked to the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MCTI). Until November, the scenario should not change and only Rio Grande do Sul should be free from drought. The condition has impacts on Brazil and the world, threatening, above all, agricultural production, especially coffee production, causing losses and leading to uncertainty regarding the 2025 harvest.
