The Central Highlands is the key coffee region of the country with an area of over 600 thousand hectares. Coffee prices reached a record high, making farmers and cooperatives extremely excited. Thanks to reasonable calculation of investment costs in coffee gardens, plus a guaranteed harvesting process, this year's coffee crop has many coffee growing households making big profits.
However, for coffee traders, this is a challenging year, because trading prices fluctuate unpredictably and risks are always lurking. Because it is very difficult to ensure business operations in this case. Some small businesses only dare to do business moderately. This year, people have the mentality of hoarding goods waiting for prices to increase. On the other hand, coffee prices fluctuate with large amplitudes, so businesses feel many risks.
