Huijin News: Brazil has produced another "young moth". The Brazilian government's decision to import Robusta coffee beans caused an uproar a few days ago. FX678 note: Brazil is the world's largest coffee producer and exporter. But two consecutive years of drought have led to a sharp drop in production in the state of Espiritu Santo, Brazil's largest producer of coffee beans.
Brazilian Agriculture Minister Blairo Maggi said Monday that the Brazilian government plans to allow the import of Robusta coffee beans from Vietnam. Brazilian instant coffee producers have been lobbying on the issue for months. On Tuesday, Ricardo Ferraco, a spokesman for the state of Espiritu Santo, said he had put forward a proposal to block the government's move in the Senate.
Evair Vieira de Melo, lieutenant governor of the state of Espiritu Santo, said that if the Senate could not reverse the decision, it would have to pin its hopes on Brazilian President Temer. The state has mobilized other coffee-producing areas to protest the decision.
According to FX678, Brazil actually tried to import coffee beans in 2016, but without success. At that time, the Brazilian government approved the import of 400 metric tons of coffee beans from Peru, which was protested by coffee bean manufacturers, and the import measures were aborted. The problem has led to conflicts between instant coffee and coffee powder producers in Brazil and coffee bean growers.
Brazilian Agriculture Minister Blairo Maggi said Brazil needs to import coffee beans to cope with the shortage. Since the beginning of 2017, Brazil has lost its market share of instant coffee. He said that he respected coffee growers, but there was a shortage of coffee beans in Brazil's domestic market, so coffee bean imports were also very important.
The price of Busta coffee beans fell
According to research data from the University of Sao Pauli, Robusta coffee beans in Brazil have fallen by 22% since the beginning of negotiations on import coffee beans. Coffee growers in the state of Espiritu Santo could lose as much as $161 million.
Brazil's Ministry of Agriculture on Monday issued phytosanitary requirements for coffee beans, including a domestic quota of 1 million bales and coffee beans imported from Vietnam.
I. & M. Smith said that potential coffee bean imports could threaten coffee growers in Brazil. A drag on the recovery of coffee bean production.
Imports will dampen growers' enthusiasm for planting.
Over the past 12 months, concerns about supply shortages have pushed the price of robusta coffee futures on the London exchange up 54 per cent, while Arabica coffee futures on the new York exchange rose 30 per cent over the same period.
The chairman of Antonio Joaquim de Souza Neto, Brazil's largest coffee supplier, said importing coffee beans would dampen growers' enthusiasm and turn to chili peppers and even cattle.
