...THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY Required Report - public distribution Date: 5/21/2013 GAIN Report Number: VM3026 Vietnam Coffee Annual 2013 Approved By: Michael Ward Prepared By: Huong Nguyen Report Highlights: Post revises its coffee production estimate in marketing year (MY) 2012/13 up to about 25 million 60 kg-bags (bags), or 1.49 million metric tons (MMT) of green coffee, about a 4 percent drop from MY2011/12 due to pre-seasonal rains during the coffee flower blossoming period in main coffee growing areas. Post also revises its total export estimate in MY 2012/13 up to 23.8 million bags, or 1.42 MMT green coffee bean equivalent (GBE), due to the pace of green bean exports MY-to-date. Post’s initial coffee production forecast for MY2013/14 is 22.9 million bags, or 1.37 MMT of green coffee, about an 8 percent drop from the previous MY due to drought in the central highlands early in the growing season. Post’s initial total export estimate for MY2013/14 is 21.3 million bags, or 1.28 MMT GBE, as drought impacted production will lead to reduced exportable supplies in MY2013/14. 1 Executive Summary: Vietnam’s coffee growing areas continue to expand despite of GOV’s goal to maintain area at 500,000 ha. Coffee prices remain high and provide a strong incentive for farmers to plant additional area. According to the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development...

Vedan has reportedly refused to sign off on the report.

In this meeting, closed to the press, researchers reportedly held Vedan responsible for eighty to ninety percent of the industrial pollution found in water samples. IENR’s Bui Ta Long said that water samples collected from February-April 2008 indicated that Vedan Vietnam discharged more than 100,000 cubic meters of waste water into the river every month. The area impacted by Vedan-sourced pollution extended for ten kilometers along the Thi Vai River. The river in this area was heavily polluted.
