COCOA DEMAND
In Nigeria - among the top five global cocoa exporters - harvest is forecast to fall by 4.4 per cent to 296,000 metric tons this year as ageing trees and a lack of access to adequate pesticides lowers yields, said in a report on Thursday. Image Credit: Reuters

The industry also remains on edge about how the European Union's new sustainability rules will play out. Traders delivering beans to the exchange will have to prove that the cocoa wasn't grown on recently deforested land. Image Credit: Pexels/Klt Dinusha
