Yini ebangela ukwenyuka kwentengo yekhofi?
NgoNovemba 2024, amanani entengo yekhofi i-Arabica afinyelele phezulu eminyakeni eyi-13. I-GCR ihlola ukuthi yini eyabangela lokhu kunyuka kanye nomthelela wokushintshashintsha kwemakethe yekhofi kubashisi bomhlaba wonke.
I-YPAK ihumushe futhi yahlela lesi sihloko, ngemininingwane elandelayo:
Ikhofi aligcini nje ngokuletha injabulo nokuqabuleka kubaphuzi abayizigidigidi emhlabeni, kodwa futhi lithatha indawo ebalulekile emakethe yezezimali yomhlaba. Ikhofi eluhlaza ingenye yemikhiqizo yezolimo ethengiswa kakhulu emhlabeni, enenani lemakethe yomhlaba wonke elilinganiselwa phakathi kwamaRandi ayizigidigidi eziyi-100 namaRandi ayizigidigidi ezingama-200 ngo-2023.
Kodwa-ke, ikhofi akuyona nje ingxenye ebalulekile yomkhakha wezezimali. Ngokusho kwe-Fairtrade Organisation, cishe abantu abayizigidi ezingu-125 emhlabeni wonke bathembele ekhofini ukuze baziphilise, futhi abantu abalinganiselwa ezigidini ezingu-600 kuya kwezingu-800 bahilelekile kulo lonke uchungechunge lwemboni kusukela ekutshaleni kuya ekuphuzeni. Ngokusho kwe-International Coffee Organisation (ICO), inani lokukhiqizwa kwekhofi ngonyaka ka-2022/2023 lifinyelele emasakeni ayizigidi ezingu-168.2.
Ukwenyuka okuqhubekayo kwentengo yekhofi ngonyaka odlule kudonsele ukunaka kwamazwe ngamazwe ngenxa yomthelela wale mboni ezimpilweni nasemnothweni wabantu abaningi. Abathengi bekhofi emhlabeni wonke bakhathazekile ngezindleko zekhofi labo lasekuseni, futhi imibiko yezindaba iqhubekisele phambili ingxoxo, iphakamisa ukuthi amanani abathengi asezokhuphuka.
Kodwa-ke, ingabe indlela yamanje yokwenyuka ayikaze ibonwe njengoba abanye abahlaziyi besho? I-GCR yabuza lo mbuzo kwi-ICO, inhlangano ehlanganisa ohulumeni abathumela kanye nabangenisa impahla kwamanye amazwe futhi ekhuthaza ukwanda okusimeme kwemboni yekhofi yomhlaba wonke endaweni esekelwe emakethe.
Amanani ayaqhubeka nokwenyuka
"Ngamagama aphansi, amanani amanje e-Arabica aphezulu kakhulu kunalawo abelokhu ekhona eminyakeni engu-48 edlule. Ukuze ubone izibalo ezifanayo, kufanele ubuyele emuva ku-Black Frost eBrazil ngawo-1970," kusho uDock No, uMxhumanisi Wezibalo eMnyangweni Wezibalo we-International Coffee Organization (ICO).
"Kodwa-ke, lezi zibalo kumele zihlolwe ngokweqiniso. Ekupheleni kuka-Agasti, amanani e-Arabica ayengaphansi kuka-$2.40 ngephawundi, okuyizinga eliphakeme kakhulu kusukela ngo-2011."
Kusukela ngonyaka wekhofi ka-2023/2024 (oqala ngo-Okthoba 2023), amanani e-Arabica abelokhu ekhuphuka njalo, okufana nokukhula kwemakethe okwaba khona ngo-2020 ngemuva kokuphela kokuvalwa kokuqala komhlaba wonke. UDockNo uthe lo mkhuba awunakubangelwa yisici esisodwa, kodwa wawungumphumela wethonya eliningi ekuhlinzekweni nasekuthuthweni kwempahla.
"Ukutholakala kwekhofi ye-Arabica emhlabeni wonke kuye kwathinteka yizimo eziningi zezulu ezimbi kakhulu. Isithwathwa esake saba khona eBrazil ngoJulayi 2021 saba nomthelela omkhulu, kanti izinyanga eziyi-13 ezilandelanayo zemvula eColombia kanye neminyaka emihlanu yesomiso e-Ethiopia nazo zathinta ukutholakala," esho.
Lezi zimo zezulu ezimbi kakhulu azizange zithinte nje kuphela intengo yekhofi ye-Arabica.
IVietnam, umkhiqizi omkhulu wekhofi iRobusta emhlabeni, nayo ibhekane nochungechunge lwezivuno ezimbi ngenxa yezinkinga ezihlobene nesimo sezulu. "Intengo yekhofi iRobusta nayo ithintwa izinguquko ekusetshenzisweni komhlaba eVietnam," kusho uNo.
"Impendulo esiyitholile iphakamisa ukuthi ukutshalwa kwekhofi akuthathelwa indawo yisitshalo esisodwa kuphela. Kodwa-ke, isidingo se-durian saseShayina sikhuphuke kakhulu eminyakeni eyishumi edlule, futhi sibone abalimi abaningi bekhipha izihlahla zekhofi futhi betshala i-durian esikhundleni salokho." Ekuqaleni kuka-2024, izinkampani eziningi ezinkulu zokuthumela izimpahla zamemezela ukuthi ngeke zisadlula eSuez Canal ngenxa yokuhlaselwa yizihlubuki esifundeni, okwathinta nokwenyuka kwentengo.
Ukushintshashintsha kusuka e-Afrika kwengeza cishe amasonto amane emizileni eminingi evamile yokuthumela ikhofi, okwengeza izindleko ezengeziwe zokuhamba kukhilogremu ngayinye yekhofi. Nakuba imizila yokuthumela iyisici esincane, umthelela wayo ulinganiselwe. Uma lesi sici sesicatshangelwe, asikwazi ukubeka ingcindezi eqhubekayo emananini.
Lokho kucindezela okuqhubekayo ezifundeni ezinkulu ezikhula emhlabeni wonke kusho ukuthi isidingo sidlule ukunikezwa eminyakeni embalwa edlule. Lokhu kuholele ekutheni imboni incike kakhulu ezinqolobaneni eziqongelelwe. Ekuqaleni konyaka wekhofi ka-2022, saqala ukubhekana nezinkinga eziningi zokunikezwa. Kusukela ngaleso sikhathi, sibone izinqolobane zekhofi ziqala ukwehla. Isibonelo, eYurophu, izinqolobane zekhofi zehle zisuka ezikhwameni ezingaba yizigidi ezingu-14 zaya ezikhwameni eziyizigidi ezingu-7.
Sibheke phambili manje (Septhemba 2024) futhi iVietnam ibonise wonke umuntu ukuthi akukho nhlobo isitokwe sasekhaya esisele. Ukuthunyelwa kwabo kwamanye amazwe kwehle kakhulu ezinyangeni ezintathu kuya kwezine ezedlule ngoba, ngokusho kwabo, akukho sitokwe sasekhaya esisele okwamanje futhi basalinde ukuthi unyaka omusha wekhofi uqale.
Wonke umuntu angabona ukuthi amasheya asephansi kakade futhi izehlakalo zesimo sezulu esibi kakhulu zezinyanga ezingu-12 ezedlule zithinte unyaka wekhofi okumele uqale ngo-Okthoba futhi lokhu kuthinta amanani njengoba isidingo kulindeleke ukuthi sidlule ukunikezwa. I-YPAK ikholelwa ukuthi lokhu kuyimbangela eyinhloko yokuthi kungani amanani enyuswe phezulu.
Njengoba abantu abaningi ngokwengeziwe bephishekela ikhofi ekhethekile kanye nobhontshisi wekhofi onephunga elisezingeni eliphezulu, imakethe yekhofi esezingeni eliphansi izoshintshwa kancane kancane. Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ubhontshisi wekhofi, ubuchwepheshe bokuthosa ikhofi, noma ukupakishwa kwekhofi, konke lokhu kuyizibonakaliso zekhwalithi ephezulu yekhofi ekhethekile.
Kuleli qophelo, kubalulekile ukuthi sigcizelele ukuthi kwenziwa umzamo ongakanani enkomishini yekhofi. Kusukela kulo mbono, noma ngabe intengo inyukile muva nje, ikhofi isashibhile.
Singumkhiqizi ogxile ekukhiqizeni izikhwama zokupakisha ikhofi iminyaka engaphezu kwengu-20. Sesibe ngomunye wabakhiqizi abakhulu bezikhwama zekhofi eShayina.
Sisebenzisa ama-valve e-WIPF asezingeni eliphezulu avela eSwitzerland ukuze sigcine ikhofi yakho isha.
Sithuthukise izikhwama ezinobungani nemvelo, njengezikhwama ezifakwa umquba kanye nezikhwama ezingasetshenziswa kabusha, kanye nezinto zakamuva ze-PCR ezethulwe.
Yizona zinketho ezinhle kakhulu zokushintsha izikhwama zepulasitiki ezivamile.
Isihlungi sethu sekhofi esiconsayo senziwe ngezinto zaseJapane, okuyizinto zokuhlunga ezinhle kakhulu emakethe.
Sinamathisele ikhathalogi yethu, sicela usithumelele uhlobo lwesikhwama, izinto zokwakha, usayizi kanye nenani olidingayo. Ukuze sikucaphunele.
Isikhathi sokuthunyelwe: Novemba-29-2024
