I think that the Amazon issue is not the most critical one for Brazilians in the upcoming election. Although we don’t discuss politics in the forum, we can if it applies to coffee. So I, I believe that Bolsinaro believed in supply side economics, meaning that overproduction of commodities would keep inflation down. What will happen to the market if Lula becomes the next president of Brazil?

Bloomberg: “VOTE FOR THE AMAZON”

“One of the world's biggest democracies heads to the polls this weekend, and the fate of the Amazon — and thus the world — hangs on it. More than 40% of Brazil is covered in rainforest, critically important in the fight against global warming. The incumbent right-wing President Jair Bolsonaro has been openly hostile toward the Amazon while ex-President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has pledge to protect the diverse ecosystem. But knowing the issue is of lesser importance for Brazilians going hungry, the leftist frontrunner is leaning heavily on memories of his golden era, when a commodities boom helped pay for social welfare programs that lifted tens of millions out of poverty.”
