Costa Rica: Coffee Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

Based on preliminary data, Costa Rica’s 2014/2015 coffee crop reached 1,397,542 60 kg bags. Production was higher than previously estimated, but remained lower than the previous crop. Lower production was primarily the result of the negative effects of coffee rust and dry weather patterns. Production is expected to decline about 5 percent in 2015/2016 based on the weaker condition of the coffee plantations and also as a result of the lower amount of rainfall expected this year.
