(Food-Beverage-News.Com, October 18, 2017 ) Cocoa is cultivated primarily in countries located in the belt between 10ºN and 10ºS of the equator on account of the favorable climatic conditions. The demand for cocoa is increasing rapidly with the growth of chocolate confectioneries and other end-products. Cocoa production is characterized by the presence of small-scale farmers who have limited access to finance and technology, as well as dated skills. Cocoa production is likely to grow over the next few years with the incorporation of modern agronomy techniques for cocoa cultivation. The governments of most cocoa-producing countries are developing infrastructure and encouraging cocoa cultivation to increase trade. Infrastructure in terms of warehousing facilities and roads for transportation in regions such as Africa are expected to improve. Political stability can greatly affect the supply potential of cocoa and hence is crucial for steady market growth.
