Brazil is experiencing severe climatic disruptions, including drought and low temperatures, caused by the La Niña phenomenon, leading to significant losses in key agricultural crops such as coffee and sugar, and to a lesser extent, corn, orange juice, and meat. The drought and frost have damaged coffee plants, potentially reducing the next harvest by 10-50%, thereby increasing prices in the international market. The drought has also affected corn production, leading to delayed planting and crop death due to frost, which has resulted in increased prices and increased imports of corn for livestock feed.
