The article reports an improvement in the carioca bean market, with price increases in the interior of São Paulo, reaching around R$275. In contrast, the black bean market sees low trading volumes and stable prices. The article also discusses the challenges of storing large quantities of carioca beans during the holiday season due to the risk of damage from a larger harvest expected in Minas Gerais and Paraná. The article also mentions adjustments in the carioca bean harvest estimates, from 608 thousand tons to 571 thousand tons for the current year, and a projected lower initial volume of 573 thousand tons for the 2024/25 harvest, which could lead to carioca bean availability issues in the short term.
