Coffee market assessment
Domestic coffee prices continue to decrease, under pressure from abundant supply and Robusta's downward trend on the international market. Although Arabica increased slightly, the general signs of recovery were still unclear.
Growers should closely monitor price developments to choose the time to sell, and pay attention to transportation costs when fuel prices have not cooled down. In the short term, coffee prices may continue to be under pressure if global supply does not have any sudden changes.
