Coffee prices, both for arabica and robusta futures, are seen rising slightly by the end of 2020 from current values despite an overall view of a larger surplus in the 2020-21 season, a Reuters poll of nine traders and analysts showed on Monday.

Arabica futures are seen finishing the year at $1.20 per pound, 0.9% higher than the settlement on Friday, while robusta futures are seen at $1,390 per tonne at end-December, 3.42% up from last week’s settlement.

“The virus has likely helped consumption of lower quality coffee in key consumers including Brazil while decline in institutional sales in industrialized consumers being partially offset by higher consumption at home,” he said. A European-based broker sees currencies playing a roll in pricing, believing the Brazilian real has touched a bottom during the pandemic and should recover, which would limit future coffee sales from the No. 1 producer and support prices.
