Sales amounted to roughly 923,500 60-kg bags, up from 877,600 bags shipped from January to September 2016.<\/p>\n<p>Sales to Arab countries fetched USD 153.7 million in the first nine months of the year, up 17% from a year ago. <\/p>\n<p>The share of Arab countries in overall exports from Brazil widened from 3% to 4%. Total exports from Brazil declined by 10.2% to 21.90 million bags. <\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, total export revenue was up 1.1% to USD 3.7 billion, with prices averaging at USD 170.66 per bag of coffee &ndash; up from USD 150.53 year-to-date through September 2016. <\/p>\n<p>In September alone, export volume shrank by 12% from August and by 25% year-on-year, while slid by 24.5%. Exports reached 2.299 million tons of coffee, with revenue coming out to USD 381.3 million. Cecaf&eacute; chairman Nelson Carvalhaes said the results were rather unexpected. <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;We ascribe this scenario to two factors: a smaller crop and the fact that producers were hesitant to sell. It will be very hard to make any forecasts going forward, after all September had always been a strong month, one with good results,&rdquo; he said. <\/p>\n<p><strong>*Translated by Gabriel Pomerancblum<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-189551\">Nelson Almeida\/AFP<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brazil\u2019s Coffee Exporters Council (Cecaf\u00e9) said foreign sales amounted to roughly 923,500 bags from January to September, while total exports from the country dipped by 10.2%.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2316,"featured_media":189551,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[102],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-58453","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-agribusiness"},"wps_subtitle":"Brazil\u2019s Coffee Exporters Council (Cecaf\u00e9) said foreign sales amounted to roughly 923,500 bags from January to September, while total exports from the country dipped by 10.2%.","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58453","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2316"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=58453"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58453\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/189551"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=58453"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=58453"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=58453"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
