Ethiopia has overtaken Colombia as the world's third largest coffee producer

Ethiopia has overtaken Colombia as the world's third largest coffee producer

Forexpros - Coffee futures retreated on Wednesday, as concerns over ample global supplies were exacerbated after the International Coffee Organization forecast higher global production of the bean.

On the ICE Futures Exchange, Arabica coffee for March delivery traded at USD2.2535 a pound during European afternoon trade, dropping 0.66%.

It earlier fell by as much as 1.1% to trade at a session low of USD2.2338 a pound.

The International Coffee Organization said Tuesday that global coffee bean production was expected to total 132.4 million bags in the 2011-12 marketing season, up 3% from a previous estimate.

The upbeat production outlook reflected higher-than-expected output in Ethiopia, which has overtaken Colombia as the world's third largest producer after Brazil and Vietnam.

According to the ICO, the African nation was projected to produce approximately 9.8 million bags, an upward revision of close to 6 million bags. The ICO gave no reason for its massive Ethiopian upgrades.

However, the rise in Ethiopian production comes amid a government drive to more than double coffee output in the five years to 2015.

Ethiopia is Africa's largest coffee producer. Coffee exports account for nearly 40% of the country total overseas exports.

"KEEP AWAY FROM PEOPLE WHO TRY TO BELITTLE YOUR AMBITIONS, SMALL PEOPLE ALWAYS DO THAT, BUT THE REALLY GREAT MAKE YOU FEEL THAT YOU, TOO, CAN BECOME GREAT."

The small people of diaspora opposition, the likes of almaria & co. Always cry foul and try to hinder us, eventhough everyday they witness our progressive journey in every sector.
But, ofcourse the great ones, the likes of our visionary leader PM Meles Zenawi and the great personality sheik Alamoudi who believe in Ethiopia and Ethiopians keep on walking the walk literally and lead our march forward.

@ Addis Zemen

Addis Zemen you just jump on any news with out realizing what it is about. PLF mafia did not produce the coffe the Ethiopian people did and they are robed by the leba goverment and that is why they pay to sit at the Ethiopian Embassy and monitor Nazret.com so you can bark like a dog who is feed by his master. In a few monthe you will be a skiny dog looking for tererafi after your master is gone.

Kodack filed for bankruptcy this morning, going out of business. After a long time keeping our memories, they are now a memory only.
The most intersting part is, they created the digital world and they themselves became the victims of the digital world.

Greedy Ag*mes find coffee export as lucarative businees so they snatched the export license from hard working ordinary citizens and gave it away to Guna and the rest of EFFORT Conglomerates. It is clear these Hayenas are monopolizing everything and don't leave room for other to function.

This news is going to make opositions' battle road to no where a very steep uphill one. I hope those blinded by the opositions' propaganda will open their eyes and say no to the destructors.

This is a good news for EFFORT, the economic wing of TPLF ,not to us Ethiopians. We have no doubt that Azeb and Meles are ready to stash portion of the earnings in their Malaysian bank account. These cancers are bleeding the nation.

I am not a big fan of cash crops in whatever shape or form they come. But I thought Vietnam's standing is more impressive than Ethiopia's.Vietnam started to grow coffee only in the twentieth century. Alas, its coffee farms prospered when Mengistu's wrongheaded agricultural policies killed them in Ethiopia. Chat (or khat) is the Ethiopian winner, although its damaging social effects are yet to be explored.
