Brazilian Açai Harvest Delayed in W36, Prices Surge

The Brazilian açai harvest, initially expected to begin in W36, has been delayed due to drought conditions in Pará State, the primary producing region. Currently, there's no clear indication of when the harvest will commence on a large scale to meet the processing industry's demands. The increasing global demand for açai has driven prices to USD 27 per 10-liter box of açai sorbet in recent years.
