The price of coffee in India has surged due to the impact of El Nino-induced drought on coffee production in major #coffee-growing regions worldwide. According to #planters interviewed by Down To Earth (DTE), the price of #Robusta coffee beans has risen significantly, now equaling that of premium #arabica beans in India. This increase in price is a result of the drought affecting production in key coffee-producing countries such as #Brazil and #Vietnam. The demand for Robusta coffee has reached new heights, with prices peaking at Rs 10,000 for a 50 kg standard bag, up from the traditional price range of Rs 4,000-5,000 per bag that has been maintained for nearly a decade. Arabica coffee is known for its superior quality and creamy texture. In India, coffee cultivation is primarily concentrated in the southern regions of #Karnataka's #Kodagu (Coorg), as well as in #Kerala and #TamilNadu. India accounts for approximately 15% of the world's coffee production, with the majority (around 70%) coming from #Karnataka alone. The primary coffee-growing areas in the state include #Chikkamagaluru, #Hassan, #Madikeri, and #Kodagu. Our team at Gogreen Warehouses is currently managing significant volumes of coffee for banks, financing institutions, and corporations in the aforementioned regions.

You may want to check - India's share in world coffee production. It should be around 3-4%, not 15%. Arabica around 2-3%, Robusta 4-5%.

India has climate based agriculture and in recent years we observe the agony of climatic drift that causes damage of crops or reduction in production with impact on agribusiness. Climate is not in our control but reason behind it can be analysed and remedy thereon can be suggested and implemented for future life. 👨🌾
