Of course these strugglings are much hidden by Bin the Crook and his gangs !!!! Facts also being that the quality of Brazilian coffee beans, on average, is......LOW !!!!!! Once more, you produce high quantities and low qualities. Produce much more if you wish but you will not earn more. Ask your growers...if you wish....how much they earn more....despite their increased productions !!!!! Or ask Nestlé, with the world biggest largest coffee sales, why they dont use more Brazilians beans !! More simple there is not. You are caressing your navel as usual. - ch.c.
