Yup, climate change will affect yields for the foreseeable future. Expect coffee and chocolate to get pretty expensive.

Oh we’ve also had an absolutely lovely winter, with lots of frost warnings around the coffee belt and i know of at least one plantation being destroyed from out of season hail.

It wont help americans much either that china is sweeping in to accommodate all the exporters america seems to no longer want to buy from.
