All 4 million bags of beans offered at the auction yesterday
sold for at least 260 reais ($135.20) per bag. The price topped
the average 235.11 reais per bag for arabica in southern Minas

the University of Sao Paulo's agricultural commodities research
unit, known as Cepea. The Agriculture Ministry plans to hold an
auction for an additional 1 million bags next month.
