Coffee| Brazil's national coffee council said the 2015 coffee crop

Brazil's national coffee council said the 2015 coffee crop to be harvested starting in May will be smaller than the 44.1 to 46.6 million bags forecast by government crop supply agency Conab. Conab justified its forecast by pointing to expectations of a more than 30 percent surge in output from the Zona da Mata region of Minas Gerais.
