Cocoa

A plant that develops essentially in regions with a hot climate and with plenty of water available, the cocoa tree is propagated basically by seeds. It flowers twice a year, with greater intensity from December to April.

Brazil is among the six largest producers in the world, along with Ivory Coast, Ghana, Indonesia, Nigeria and Cameroon. Regionally, the highlight is Bahia (80% of national production), followed by Pará, Rondônia and Espírito Santo. Despite this, both the development of seeds and plants in the field are considered slow.

Added to this is witches' broom, a disease caused by a fungus that decimated thousands of hectares of Bahian cacao in 1989. So much so that today, by grafting, clones resistant to this disease are being produced.
