According to Bloomberg, global Robusta prices are expected to rise significantly and persist due to concerns about a shortage of supply from Vietnam.
The ICO forecasts that the world may face a Robusta shortage of up to 35 million bags (60kg/bag) by 2040. Additionally, Robusta prices are supported by increased demand from European buyers ahead of the new EUDR anti-deforestation regulations taking effect.
Vicofa reports that adverse weather conditions, along with outbreaks of mealybugs and red spider mites, will reduce Vietnam’s Robusta production for the next season by 15-20%.
Vicofa estimates that Robusta production for 2023/24 is around 26.7 million bags, with the 2024/25 season expected to range from 21.4 to 22.7 million bags. This is significantly lower than the previous preliminary forecast of 24 million bags by Volcafé and much lower than the recent estimate of 27.85 million bags by the USDA.
