• Starbucks announced this week the suspension of its activities in Russia;

*Data as of the completion of this report


WEATHER

The warm air mass – that began to act since February 20th in the southeast region – was the main meteorological phenomenon in the first week of March, resulting in high temperatures in the afternoon and preventing the arrival of cold fronts. 

For the next week, the forecast is for a weakening of the warm air mass and a first cold front of March arriving in the Southeast region, which should cause moderate rains in the South, Cerrado and Mogiana regions.

Rain forecast for next week:

  • Sul de Minas region: between 40 and 50 mm;
  • Zona da Mata region: between 10 and 20 mm;
  • Cerrado region: between 35 and 45 mm;
  • Garça region: between 15 and 20 mm;
  • Alta Mogiana region: between 40 and 50 mm.

DOMESTIC MARKET and FOB

Local market without much liquidity reflecting the Real appreciation and the NY “ICE” down movements. 

Strictly soft good cup running screen: seller close to R$ 1.300,00;
Strictly soft fine cup running screen: seller close to R$ 1.350,00;
Rio Minas 17/18: R$ 1.300,00 and running screen with 30% low grades near to R$ 1.180,00;
600 defects: buyer near to R$ 1.240,00;

FOB market with little demand and few deals reported.


LOGISTICS

The main destinations in Asia, Europe, and in the Americas continue to face space restrictions. Mainly in Europe, due to the redirection of cargo originally destined for Ukraine. Due to the shortage of space within March, negotiations for freight for the second trimester of the year should already be concluded.
