INDIAN COFFEE PRODUCTION AND EXPORT DESTINATIONS: AN OVERVIEW

Dr. M. Amaravathi, Anand Shankar Raja. M

Abstract :

Coffee is not just a drink. It is a global commodity. As one of the world‘s most traded products, second in value only to oil, the coffee industry employs millions of people around the world through its growing, processing and trading. While the coffee trade is vital to the politics, survival and economies of many developing nations, the industry‘s pricing and futures are decided in conference rooms and on stock exchange floors in some of the world‘s wealthiest cities. Climate change is threatening coffee crops in virtually every major coffee producing region of the world. Higher temperatures, long droughts punctuated by intense rainfall, more resilient pests and plant diseases, all of which are associated with climate change, have reduced coffee supplies dramatically in recent years. Indian coffee production is affected due to the continuous fall in rainfall affecting production and export. This study aims at determining the position of coffee production in general, with regard to region wise split–up, taking into account Indian geographical area and production units and export data
