Brazilian coffee production, trade, and sustainability assessment data for multi-objective optimization modeling

The data were used to characterize coffee production and trade flows in Brazil, structure the production and distribution system considered in the model, and calculate economic, environmental, and social indicators used to assess sustainability alternatives.

The dataset includes secondary data on coffee production and exports obtained from different Brazilian institutional sources, including Embrapa, IBGE, Comex, Conab, and Cecafé, covering different years and levels of geographic disaggregation. It also includes life cycle inventory data used to represent Brazilian coffee production and its distribution to the United States consumer market. In addition to the original data, the dataset contains tables and intermediate results generated during data processing and model development, including cost calculations, environmental impact estimates, and information used to construct the social performance indicator.
