The FAS Mumbai forecasts India's 2025/26 coffee production at 6 million 60-kilogram bags. Adverse weather, including a dry spell followed by strong winds and heavy rains, is expected to reduce yields. Arabica and Robusta farmgate prices have increased significantly (64% and 24%, respectively) due to global supply constraints and lower production forecasts. Despite lower projected exports (6 million bags), domestic consumption is anticipated to rise to 1.4 million bags, driven by strong soluble coffee demand, partially offsetting the export decline.
