As Guatemalan officials forecast a drop of 38.000 quintals for this season's production, the Economy Ministry could authorize importing the grain tariff-free.

"The problems with the current harvest are caused by drought, explained Erasmo Velásquez, economy vice minister", reports Prensalibre.com. "The official said they will import 2 thousand metric tons of black bean from Mexico, U.S.A and Argentina".
