By the end of March, 20 14, the coffee harvest in Yunnan province, where the coffee planting area and output accounted for more than 99% of the country, was coming to an end.
Affected by the international market, after more than two years of "price winter", the purchase price of coffee beans soared in 20 14, from per kilogram 13 yuan to 25 yuan.
Although soaring prices stimulated market confidence, during the 20 13 to 20 14 cropping season, the coffee production in China decreased from 80,000 tons in the previous cropping season to less than 60,000 tons. In the absence of large coffee brands and local brands, the pressure of reducing production makes it more urgent for Chinese coffee industry to break through the raw material producing areas.
According to the survey, the coffee planting area in Yunnan increased from more than 300,000 mu in 2008 to more than 2065,438+04/kloc-0.4 million mu, and the output increased from about 30,000 tons in 2065,438+03 to more than 80,000 tons, accounting for more than 99% of the national coffee planting area and output, making it the largest coffee producing area in China.

20 14, 1 At the end of the year, with the rebound of international coffee futures prices, Yunnan coffee prices also rose rapidly.
