Guatemala City, Oct. 9 - Guatemala estimates it will export 3.45 million 60-kg bags of coffee in the 2008/09 harvest season, 9 percent less than it exported in the current cycle, the head of the country's producers association said on Thursday.
Guatemala exported 3.8 million bags in the 2007/08 coffee year, which began last October.
Central America's largest coffee producer revised down a previous estimate for the 2008/09 season by 2.3 percent, Christian Rasch, the head of producers group Anacafe, told Reuters in an interview.
