Colombian Coffee Growers Unfulfilling Deliveries ON Record High Internal Prices

Colombian Coffee Growers Unfulfilling Deliveries ON Record High Internal Prices  

Coffee Network (Bogota)- Coffee growers in Colombia, who had committed to deliver beans in the  future’s market, are unfulfilling with deliveries putting coffee cooperatives at risk because of record- high local coffee prices, several coffee representatives to the coffee growers federation said today.

Small and medium-sized coffee growers, who several months ago had committed to sell their beans to the cooperatives, are unfulfilling with the delivering of beans because with Colombian coffee prices hitting as much as COP1.905 million Colombian pesos (US$488) for two bags of parchment coffee, many of them would be losing money.

Coffee growers had sold their beans in the future’s coffee market with deliveries now at a price around COP1.2 million Colombian pesos (US$370) but with coffee prices at COP1.905 million, many of them are failing to bring their beans to cooperatives.

“The coffee cooperatives in the (province) of Valle del Cauca are in serious problems because the growers are not delivering the beans they offered in the future’s market,” Albeiro Hernan Duque Toro, representative for this province located in the south of the country said during the online program “Speak with the general manager of the coffee growers federation,” an online program that gathers coffee growers throughout the country with FNC’s general manager Roberto Velez.

Valerio Velez, a coffee representative from the Risaralda province, asked Velez to use funds of the coffee price stabilization fund to cover the non-fulfilment of future coffee contracts.

“We are very afraid of futures sales and future sales are not meeting the needs of the market. In the past, we were used to sell beans in the futures market with differences of 0.5C/lb, but today we are seeing that $0.20 cents per pound in a single negotiation,” he said.

Humberto Ayala said coffee growers in his province are losing COP440 million pesos (US$112,800) because they will have to deliver beans at a much lower price than current prices. “With futures sales, we are socializing losses,” he said.

Maria Ruby Muñoz from the coffee growers federation of Nariño said coffee growers are not going to fulfil with the delivery of beans they committed in the futures market. ”We are not going to meet with the deliveries,” she said plain fully.  

Mauricio Rivera, general manager of the Huila’s large coffee cooperative Coopcentral, said all coffee cooperatives in Colombia are in serious problems.

Colombia’s internal coffee price hit yesterday the all-time record high of COP1.9 million pesos for two bags of parchment coffee of 125kg, propelled by skyrocketing international coffee prices that have surpassed $2.00/lb

Coffee growers have hit highs as Brazil’s 2021-2022 coffee crop was spared damage from the recent frost occurrences, Thiago Cazarini, President of Cazarini Trading in Brazil, tells CoffeeNetwork in an interview, with the crop estimated between 55-57 million 60-kg bags.

Perspective: Morning Commentary for August 11

August 11 – It was generally a quiet night for the markets until early this morning when a headline hit that Iran and Oman were close to reaching a deal. Stock futures rallied, while the dollar index followed Treasury yields lower, along with active selling in the energy- and food-based commodities. The headline had limited impact though in a world that has become skeptical of promises of peace. Stock futures remain steady to firmer at this hour, while the VIX trades near 16 – just above 2026 lows. The dollar index is trading near 99.8 this morning, after recovering from its early morning selloff over the following hour of trade. Yields on 10-year Treasuries are trading near 4.69%, while yields on 2-year Treasuries trade near 4.22%. WTI crude oil is trading near $82 per barrel at this hour, while Brent trades near $88. The grain and oilseed markets are mostly weaker, after failing to recover from this morning’s early selloff that started in the crude oil market.

Perspective: Morning Commentary for August 10

August 10 – The world commodity markets and economy remains at risk amid two wars this morning. Tensions continue to escalate in both the Middle East and the Black Sea – risking pulling other countries into the conflicts. Stocks are down modestly this morning as we start a week of trade in which we’ll see key inflation and retail sales data following a weak jobs report this past Friday. Yet, stocks continue to trade just below record high levels, with the VIX trading near 2026 lows just above 15. The dollar index is trading near 99.7. Yields on 10-year Treasuries are trading near 4.68%, while yields on 2-year Treasuries are trading near 4.23%. The energy and food-based markets are firmer today amid the escalated risks. WTI crude oil is trading near $80, while Brent trades near $85 per barrel. Double-digit gains in the winter wheat markets lead the way for higher grain and oilseed prices.
