Las cosechas y exportaciones de café colombiano registraron el año pasado su peor nivel en tres décadas, informó la Federación Nacional de Cafeteros (FNC), que atribuyó dicha caída al clima adverso y a la baja fertilización.

The harvesting and exporting of Colombian coffee last year were the worst in three decades said the National Federation of Coffee Growers (FNC in Spanish), due to bad weather and lower fertilization.
