Coffee harvest from Cooxupé members reaches 94,25% of the total area

Cooxupé, the largest Arabica coffee cooperative in Brazil, reported in a report this Tuesday that its members' harvest reached 94.25 percent of the total area in the week ending September 2, compared to 89 percent harvested in the same period in last year.

In the previous week, cooperative producers had harvested 91.38 percent of the total harvest area.

With the harvest practically over, producers turn their attention to the development of plants towards next year's harvest.

Cooxupé officials recently said that the frosts in July and the dry weather that hit the coffee plantations in Minas Gerais will sharply reduce next year's harvest in the state, whose crops will produce less also due to the fact that 2017 is the low period of the cycle. Arabica biannual.

Last week, there were already records of early flowering in the south of Minas Gerais, which could form the first fruits to ripen for the 2017 harvest.
