The cocoa industry faced significant challenges in the first quarter of 2024, with a notable decline in the processing and receipt of national beans, attributed to the impacts of El Niño and diseases such as witches’ broom and brown rot. This resulted in a 31% drop in volume received and a 6% decrease in grinding, alongside a 56% fall in imports and a 23% decline in exports.
