Heavy rain! Some coffee producing areas in Brazil may reduce production by 30%!

According to Brazilian media reports, in south-central Brazil ushered in rain weather, the current torrential rain has caused a lot of impact on parts of southern Brazil. It mainly affects Mato Grosso in southern Brazil and the state of Sao Paulo in south-central Brazil.

In Mato Grosso, strong storms and weather in recent days have flooded some cities, trapped cars, and flooded streets and roads as high as one meter. Torrential rains have seriously affected traffic. According to the local government, the rainstorm was the heaviest in recent days, with more than 100 millimeters of rainfall in less than an hour. at present, the most serious problem is on the edge of some streams, the river is flooding, affecting nearby houses, and the government is counting the major damage caused by the storm.

In the state of Sao Paulo, there were only sporadic light and moderate rain, but then there was a direct rainstorm, the impact of this rainstorm is very great, the government is now on alert. Fire forces received 21 calls about fallen trees, floods in several areas, and torrential rains once again damaged power systems in Sao Paulo state, leaving tens of thousands of homes without power, according to civil defense agencies.

According to the report of the meteorological department, as the southern region is still dominated by hot and humid air, it will lead to frequent rainfall, heavy rainfall, and continue for a period of time, with expected rainfall of up to 50 mm, accompanied by winds of up to 40 kilometers per hour. Brazil's disaster prevention department warned that some periods and areas of rainfall may be relatively heavy, the need to guard against floods and other extreme weather.

In Minas Gee, next door to Sao Paulo, the situation is still not good. According to local reports, Minas is also beginning to resume rainfall, but the rainfall is much less than that of Sao Paulo, with an average rainfall of 27.4 mm in the past week, only 64% of the historical average.

Earlier, Brazil experienced the worst drought in nearly 70 years, with high average temperatures and almost no rain in the main growing areas of agricultural products such as coffee, with no rain for six months in the worst areas. coupled with dry rivers and reservoirs and falling water levels, there is a shortage of water resources.

In addition, the dry and hot weather also caused forest fires. According to data, about 22.38 million hectares of forest fields in Brazil were destroyed by the fire, including coffee plantations. It eventually led to a decrease in coffee production in 2024x25, and also damaged the planting situation and yield potential of coffee in the new season of 2025x26, so many Brazilian coffee institutions are reducing their production in the new season, and the output is expected to drop by more than 6.8%.

Originally, many producers thought that the situation in Brazil could improve after the dry weather and the rainy season, but a large amount of rainfall did not help much, and even excessive Rain Water would cause some harm. It is understood that Brazil's Arabica coffee producing area was supposed to begin flowering at the end of September, but a large area of flowering only appeared in October due to a long drought.

But according to the head of Cooxupe, Brazil's largest coffee cooperative, this is a concentrated blossom, and a large number of flowers, but flowers are not coffee fruit, how many coffee flowers can be converted into fruit is the key. The specific results need to be better concluded in mid-December.

And some agencies say that the current rainfall restores moisture in the soil that is seriously short of water and ensures that the roots of coffee trees are not under pressure. Although it is helpful to the yield, it cannot make up for the damage caused by previous drought and fire to some coffee trees. Due to the unstable climate, it is estimated that coffee production in the worst affected areas will drop by 20% to 30%.
