Cocoa Weather For September 29, 2026

                       Kansas City, September 8 (World Weather, Inc.) – El Nino’s persistence is gradually allowing its negative influence around the world to expand and deepen. The single greatest El Nino-related weather problem area in the world today is Indonesia and all cacao production areas in that nation have been impacted by dryness and excessive heat. Relief is certainly not likely in a significant manner anytime soon. As expected, dryness has begun to evolve in west-central Africa cacao and coffee production areas as well. Ivory Coast 30-day rainfall totals have been well below normal and the same is true in southwestern Ghana. These areas are often influenced by persistent El Nino conditions and the odds are relatively high that dryness will be an ongoing issue into the fourth quarter of this calendar year. So far, weather in Ecuador, Brazil and Colombia has not been nearly as adverse as that in Indonesia, although rain has become more erratic and light.
