Production of coffee beans in Bondowoso fell by 40 to 60 per cent in 2017 due to high rainfall.

On July 15th, Suyitno, director of the Rejo Tani cooperative in the town of Sukosari, said coffee bean production had dropped significantly this year. Last year, the yield per hectare reached 500 kg to 600 kg, but this year it is only 200 kg to 300 kg. Arabica coffee beans are more susceptible to weather than Robusta coffee beans. From September 2016 to February 2017, the rainfall was relatively high, affecting coffee bean production.

(1) India's coffee exports may drop by 15% and 20%.

India's coffee exports are likely to fall 15 per cent and 20 per cent this year as exporters do not receive enough orders in the coming months.

Coffee shop export data show that from January 1 to July 17, 2017, exports totaled 216926 tons, a slight decline compared with the same period last year. "but in the coming months, the decline will expand," said Ramesh Rajah, president of the Indian Coffee exporters Association. "by the end of last year, growers estimated that orders would fall by 30 per cent, but ended up by only 10 per cent. It's hard to find buyers now, and they're starting to buy from other sources. "

The Coffee Bureau estimated total coffee production in 2016-17 at 316700 tons, including 220500 tons of Robusta and 96200 tons of Arabica.

Global Robusta coffee futures fell $2200 a tonne in the following months after rising to $200 a tonne in January. Now it has hit $2126 a tonne again. "as growers expect prices to rise, the quantity on the market decreases. Although prices are rising now, purchases have slowed, "said MP Deviah, general manager of Allansons, a major exporter.

Exporters are pinning their hopes on next year's harvest because there is likely to be a shortage of Rain Water in the coffee-growing areas of Karnataka and Kerala. Last year, growers predicted a sharp drop in Arabica coffee production, while Robusta, which accounts for 70% of the country's total coffee production, would be affected by next season's harvest.

"there is not enough groundwater, and the southwest monsoon is not strong. Although the flowering is good, the formation of Robusta fruit is affected by the lack of Rain Water. So we expect production to fall by 30%, "said MM Chengappa, president of the Karnataka growers Association."

Wayanard, a coffee-growing region in Kerala, has declared a lack of rainfall. Prashant Rajesh, secretary to the president of the Wayanard Coffee growers Association, said: "intermittent rainfall and sunlight lead to black rot (a fungal disease). Under current circumstances, the number of crops here should be reduced by 15%. "
