Ivory Coast Cocoa Farmers Concerned About Harmattan Wind’s Impact on Production.

Cocoa farmers in Ivory Coast are raising alarms over the potential negative impact of the strong Harmattan wind on cocoa crops. The Harmattan, a seasonal wind from the Sahara Desert, typically lasts from December to March, bringing dry conditions that can dehydrate the soil and damage cocoa pods.Farmers in key cocoa-growing regions such as Daloa, Yamoussoukro, and Bongouanou have reported below-average rainfall and intensifying Harmattan winds. With little rain last week, they worry that if the dry conditions persist for another two weeks, cocoa tree leaves will dry out, leading to lower yields starting in February.“There is no rain, and if the Harmattan remains strong, tree yields will be low,” said Albert N’Zue, a farmer near Daloa.Meanwhile, farmers in regions like Abengourou, where rainfall was significantly above the five-year average, are optimistic. “We’ve had enough rain, which will help trees […]

Ghana Seeks Malaysian Investment to Boost Palm Oil Production.

Ghana is calling on Malaysian investors to partner with local firms to develop the country's oil palm industry and reduce its reliance on imports. At a recent business forum in Accra, key industry players emphasized the potential for collaboration to speed up Ghana's self-sufficiency in palm oil production. Despite Ghana's current annual production of 300,000 tonnes, the demand stands at 450,000 tonnes, creating a deficit of 150,000 tonnes. The government aims to close this gap through the work of the Tree Crops Development Authority (TCDA) and strategic partnerships.
