The availability of coffee from some parts of the world has been questionable over the last year or so, and the industry has seen upwards of a 50% increase in pricing.
The questions around the “C” market have left us all wondering, “what’s next”, and if the volatility had some end in sight.
Coffee manufactures, and end users have been asking:
Is it available?
Will it be available?
How much will be available, and what’s the price?
These are very real questions, but now it seems some hint of an answer may be emerging about Kenya Coffee
Kenya Coffee season has experienced a steep decline in crop volume productions, so the 2010-11 marketing season may close early.
The Kenya market typically closes in July and Aug, but instead it will most likely close in May-June time-frame.
If you love that AA African Coffee that JumpinGoat sells, you may want to stock up.
This may not speak directly to availability, but remember, coffee is traded on “replacement value”…I’m just saying !

What is the problem? Weather? Labor? I love the Kenya AA as well as Zimbabwe when it has been available. I will check my stock.
Low yields, heavy rains, and poor governance. Also the farming of coffee there is being offset by more profitable crops like maize. I like the Kenya too Ron
