May arabica coffee (KCK24) on Thursday closed up +2.60 (+1.43%), and May ICE robusta coffee (RMK24) closed up +51 (+1.68%).
Coffee prices on Thursday settled moderately higher. The forecast for scant rain in Brazil over the next week supports arabica coffee prices. Robusta garnered support Thursday over smaller coffee supplies from Vietnam after the country's General Statistics Office reported that Vietnam's Feb coffee exports fell -20 % y/y to 160,000 MT.
