Jakarta, October 19, 2022
As is known, the Indonesian coffee industry over the past ten years has continued to experience significant growth of 50 percent or 5 percent growth annually.
In fact, according to the Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs, last year Indonesia’s coffee production reached 795 thousand tons, 94.5 percent of which was supplied by smallholder coffee entrepreneurs. Meanwhile, domestic consumption for coffee commodities in 2021 reached 370 thousand tons or grew 4.5 percent(year on year / yoy). Meanwhile, in terms of exports, in 2021 it was recorded at US$842.5 million or grew 4.1 percent (yoy).
This good growth is in fact experiencing quite a challenge
What challenges will we face? From the global recession, political issues, the Russia-Ukraine war, to climate change issues, coffee quality will decline.
These factors are likely to influence the landscape of the coffee industry in 2023. Climate change will greatly affect the quality of coffee worldwide, including in Indonesia.
Moelyono Soesilo stated, “This year, the quality of coffee will experience tremendous challenges due to La Nina . Where the impact is that the quality of the coffee becomes over fermented, due to the high rainfall.”
Moelyono further explained that the decline in quality despite growing coffee consumption was due to La Nina. This impact will affect the amount of annual coffee production. On the other hand, coffee consumption will continue to increase, especially at the local level. Furthermore, he also talked about the trend of the local coffee industry that will return to the pre-pandemic era.
“The coffee industry will experience a recovery like before the pandemic. This condition can be seen from the high flow of community mobility. Which is also accompanied by the function of coffee shops as destinations or new places for people to work and other activities. And this is a good signal for the coffee industry despite the issue of global recession.” Moelyono said in a hybrid webinar, Wednesday, October 19, 2022.
