The coffee futures market had a mixed start to the week, with Arabica registering price adjustments in New York while Robusta advanced in London, driven by concerns in Asia. Arabica contracts saw a decline, influenced not only by the expected correction but also by pressure from certified stocks at ICE, highlighting the market's delicate dynamics. However, preparation for the start of the harvest in Brazil adds an element of optimism, with producers conducting area mappings and taking advantage of favorable prices.

Meanwhile, in London, Robusta saw a significant increase, reflecting ongoing concerns about weather conditions in Vietnam, the world's leading producer of this variety. The lack of rainfall and heat in Asia remains a source of apprehension. In Brazil, the physical market followed suit and ended with price adjustments, underscoring the market's sensitivity to global conditions.
Detailed numbers from Brazil's main trading centers highlight variations in coffee prices, with declines in several regions. These adjustments reflect not only international trends but also local factors such as regional supply and demand, closely monitored by market participants seeking insights into the sector's future.
