Climate change hinders coffee cultivation
The regions of the planet suitable for coffee cultivation are reportedly experiencing an average of forty-seven days of excessive heat each year, according to a study conducted in twenty-five countries representing almost all coffee production from 2021 to 2025. For Brazil, Vietnam, Colombia, Ethiopia, and Indonesia, the figure rises to fifty-seven additional days of abnormal heat for a production that accounts for seventy-five percent of the total. Temperatures above thirty Celsius degrees are considered quite harmful for Arabica quality and are not ideal for Robusta quality either and these two coffee plant species support the majority of global production, then it had already been observed that erratic rainfall promotes the growth of mold, fungi and diseases inevitably leading to higher prices for lower-quality products.
