Description: "Report of a study commissioned by the government to assess the coffee sector crisis, accentuated in this decade after the dissolution of the International Coffee Agreement. The report was prepared by a group of experts in the field, and substantiated by studies subcontracted to special consultants. Concludes that coffee exports are and will continue to be viable and important for the Colombian economy, but that the sector has to increase its competitiveness and the institutions that govern it need to undergo reform to adapt to new market conditions. However, a renewed increase of relative importance of coffee exports, or a major change in the export structure (i.e., from a basic product to a more finished product) is not foreseen"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
