Uganda exported 268,490 60-kg bags of coffee in July, the Uganda Coffee Development Authority reports, down 33% from 403,381 bags last July due to massive flower and berry abortion caused by dryness. That brings the total shipped in the crop year to 2.82 mln bags down from 2.85 mln bags one year earlier. August exports are expected to be down as well, 265,000 bags from 320,289 in 2015.
