Essex Broadcasting Corporation June 7 news, the United States Department of Agriculture in Addis Ababa Commissioner said that Ethiopian coffee exports are expected to reach 240000 tons in 2019 / 20, a record high. Reuters quoted the USDA as saying that Ethiopian coffee production will rise to 7.35 million bags (60kg each) in 2019 / 20, an increase of 1.4 per cent over the same period last year. Of this total, exports accounted for more than half, or about 4 million bags, an increase of 0.5 per cent over the same period last year. At the same time, the domestic demand for coffee in Ethiopia is strong, and coffee consumption in Ethiopia is expected to increase by 2.4% in 2019 / 20 compared with the same period last year.

Ethiopian coffee exporters face tighter regulation, and several defaulting merchants have been banned from exporting in recent months, according to the USDA. In addition, Ethiopian coffee production faces the challenge of farmers switching to other crops, especially in the eastern part of Ethiopia, where most farmers are replacing coffee with Chategrass (Arabica tea).
