Over the past month, global green coffee bean prices have experienced significant fluctuations. Arabica coffee, after posting gains earlier this year, entered a sharp downward trend and reached its lowest levels in recent weeks. The current price stands at approximately $3.0716 per pound, which remains lower than the previous month. However, there have been signs of a partial price recovery in recent days, though the overall trend for the past month remains downward.

A similar pattern is evident in the Robusta coffee market. Prices have generally been on a declining path in recent weeks, currently hovering around $3,414.70 per metric ton.
