The clove market is entering a critical phase, with multiple risk factors converging:
๐ฆ๏ธ Unfavorable weather in Indonesia is severely disrupting harvest and drying processes. Prolonged rains have increased the risk of mold and discoloration, even after re-drying efforts.
๐ Tight supply: Early forecasts suggest the new Indonesian crop could be 15โ20% lower than last year. Many farmers are hesitant to harvest due to high processing costs and low expected returns.
๐ Current demand remains slow, but the market may turn volatile if crop shortages are confirmed across major origins.
