Vietnam Coffee Industry strives to overcome the impact of Climate change

In 2016, extreme weather phenomena occurred frequently across Vietnam, adversely affecting coffee bean processing. This not only increases labour costs and processing time, but also affects the quality and value of Vietnamese coffee exports.

Vietnam Coffee Import and Export Center produces 300 tons of coffee per day. However, since the beginning of the year, the processing and packaging time of coffee beans has begun to increase. 2016-2017 During the harvest period, Vietnam coffee production bases such as Dele and Duonong encountered many difficulties, and coffee production volume and quality were declining.

In June and July 2016, Vietnam suffered severe drought in many parts of the country, and continuous rainfall during the coffee harvest season affected coffee production and quality. In addition, the processing time of coffee beans is also extended, which increases labor and raw material costs.

According to the Vietnam Coffee Cocoa Association, bad weather caused a 30% drop in coffee production in 2016 and is likely to affect coffee production and quality in 2017. In the context of limited processing conditions in some coffee growing areas, Vietnam's coffee industry is likely to suffer more if effective production methods and advanced technologies are not introduced in a timely manner.

In order to keep coffee prices stable and coffee exporting enterprises operating effectively, the Vietnam Coffee Cocoa Association recommends that enterprises maintain regular operations to ensure balanced capital flows, reduce risks and improve production and operation efficiency.
