Coffee Production by Country, 1990-2024

About This Dataset

Coffee Production by Country, 1990-2024
Vietnam is the defining story in modern coffee. It produced almost nothing in 1990 and is now the world's second-largest grower, having increased output more than twentyfold after the government pushed hard into robusta in the Central Highlands. That surge helped trigger the coffee price crisis around the turn of the millennium, when prices fell below the cost of production and smallholders across Central America and East Africa abandoned their farms. Colombia, third, produces almost exactly what it did in 1990. Figures are green coffee.
