Coffee production in Costa Rica in market year 2024/25 is expected to hover around near-record-low levels as the country’s approximately 27,000 coffee growers continue to face labor and weather-related challenges.
Compounding those issues is the strength of the Costa Rican colón against the United States dollar, which is creating unfavorable exchange rates for exports and further disincentivizing production.
These and other issues are outlined in the new USDA Foreign Agriculture Service annual report on the Costa Rica coffee sector.
[Note: This is part of a series of stories that will explore USDA FAS annual coffee reports. The information agency typically delivers more than a dozen country-level reports on the coffee sector, each coming from different authors and field offices.]
