[Brazilian coffee bean production faces reduction due to El Niño] November 13th: Affected by the super strong El Niño, abnormal rainfall and high temperatures have occurred in the main coffee producing areas in southeastern Brazil in recent months, disrupting the growth rhythm of coffee trees. Local farmers said that local coffee trees have sporadic flowering periods, difficult fruit setting, and are also at risk of disease. It can be said that the output and quality of Brazilian coffee are facing double tests this year. Bernardo Paiva, CEO of the local coffee cooperative, said that we are in a period of strong El Niño, and Brazil's coffee cultivation is not immune. Therefore, the market has begun to be wary of this, and expectations for production in 2027 have begun to be affected. It is expected that national production will be very low next year. (CCTV News)
