A boy lies on coffee beans while waiting for his mother as she works at a coffee factory in Takengon, Indonesia’s Aceh province. The harvest in Indonesia has been plagued by incessant rains, which disrupted the drying of beans and deliveries from plantations to the major export port in the main growing island of Sumatra. But Indonesia’s coffee output is likely to hit a record of over 12 million 60-kg bags this crop year, the International Coffee Organisation said in July, raising its forecast for the world’s third-largest producer by 13% - REUTERS
