Ghana: Ghana - Cocoa Sector Overview - 2025
Link to report:
Ghana's cocoa bean production in marketing year (MY) 2024/2025 (October-September) is expected to climb to 700,000 metric tons (MT), up 32 percent from the MY 2023/2024 season's 531,000 MT production figure. The jump in production is attributable to improved yields recorded during the early part of the current year’s main crop harvest. In the MY 2024/2025 season, reportedly more effective pruning exercises are underway. Also, the Ghanaian government is supplying farmers with more adequate quantities of insecticides to cover this season’s application requirements. Ghana's cocoa bean exports are projected to reach 520,000 MT, up 55 percent over the preceding year’s estimate of 336,000 MT.
