MILAN – In its first official estimate for 2019/20, the National Supply Company, or Conab, sees Brazil’s coffee crop between 50.48 and 54.48 million bags, down between 18.1% e l’11.6% from a record harvest of 61.66 million bags recorded in 2018/19.
Arabica production is seen between 36.12 and 38.16 million bags, down 23.9% to 19.6%, respectively. The decline is attributable to negative biennial bearing factors for the arabica coffee farms.
The country’s coffee growing has traditionally followed a cycle of huge biennial swings, with an “on” year of large production followed by an “off” year of low output as the trees recover.
