The export price of coffee for the 2021/22 financial year in Tanzania has increased by 30%, with a 50-kilo bag of dry coffee beans now selling for $186.17, up from $130 the previous season. This price increase is due to falling production in Brazil, the world's leading coffee exporter, and rising consumption in Tanzania. The Tanzania Coffee Board (TCB) will conduct at least 25 coffee auctions in various coffee growing zones throughout the season. Coffee production in Tanzania is projected to reach a record 65,000 tonnes, with at least 35,000 tonnes being Arabica coffee and 30,000 tonnes Robusta. Despite a decline in the value of traditional exports like cotton, sisal, cloves, and tea in the year ending June 2021, coffee and sisal were the only traditional export crops to see an increase in the same period.
