Why these windows matter

Arrowroot yields are determined disproportionately during a small number of weather-sensitive windows. Across the 2 production regions tracked here, 6 windows show outsized sensitivity to rainfall, temperature, or storm damage. Buyers who track these windows can position contracts ahead of price moves driven by yield uncertainty.

The most consequential weather risks for arrowroot are concentrated in specific months. Monsoon variability and tropical storms in South and Southeast Asia Port congestion and reefer/container availability constraints These forces drive the seasonal volatility that shows up in futures markets weeks or months later.

The calendar above is structural, not predictive — it shows where and when arrowroot grows under normal conditions. Weather anomalies (El Niño, La Niña, regional droughts) shift these windows by weeks and compound across regions. ATLAS tracks these anomalies in its supply-risk data and surfaces them on the arrowroot risk surface.
