  • Brazil Coffee Harvest Disrupted by Rains, Prices Supported Amid Supply Concerns
    June 25, 2026, 4:32 PM EDT. Coffee prices showed mixed moves on Thursday, with robusta coffee rising 1.58% to a four-month high while arabica fell 0.29% after recent strength. Heavy rains in southern Brazil, brought by a cold front, are delaying the coffee harvest and threatening crop quality, supporting prices. ICE arabica inventories hit a 2.25-year low, tightening supply. The threat of a strong El Niño event, potentially the strongest on record, may disrupt rainfall patterns crucial for Brazil's 2026/27 coffee crop, fueling bullish sentiment. However, strong export growth from Vietnam, the world's largest robusta producer, and forecasts of a record Brazilian crop weigh bearish. The USDA projects Brazil's 2026/27 coffee production up 14% year-on-year, while Vietnam's production and exports continue to rise, creating a complex outlook for coffee markets.
