San Jose, Costa Rica, June 9 - Costa Rica estimates it will produce 1.807 million 60-kg bags of coffee in the 2008/09 harvest, down 3.6 percent from the previous cycle due to the biannual nature of the crop, a top official from the national coffee institute ICAFE said on Monday.
Coffee trees usually produce less beans the year following a high-volume harvest.
