BRAZIL’S shipments of green coffee fell to 1.91m 60kg bags in February compared with 2.47m bags in the same month last year, coffee exporter association Cecafe said on Wednesday. Brazil’s 2011/12 coffee harvest was a smaller off-year in the biennial cycle which causes output to rise and fall from one year to the next. February’s total exports were the lowest for that month since 2008, Cecafe data showed.
