Frost Kills 900 Million Coffee Trees in Parana Brazil

At dawn on July 18 1975 a brutal frost wiped out 900 million coffee trees in Parana crippling Brazil’s 1976 crop by 73.5 percent halving exports and triggering price spikes. The disaster reverberated through global markets with U S processors raising prices and consumer campaigns to curtail coffee use.

Coffee price war planned by housewives faces Brazil

Mrs Beverly Ribaudo of St Clair Shores Michigan and Mrs Barbara Shuttleworth of Vernon Connecticut mobilize housewives to launch a national coffee brake next Monday. They aim to cut prices by urging a boycott while Camilo Calazans president of the Brazilian Coffee Institute warns the harvest will be small and stocks dwindle making a boycott unlikely to quickly affect prices.
