      why is ghana good for growing cocoa

      Because:

      Cocoa needs warm air. Long shade conditions of 27 ° C, with daytime variations of less than 8 ° C and precipitation of 12 cm, are ideal weather conditions for cocoa growth. It also needs good drainage of soil and habitats from strong winds and sunlight. This is the case in the mountainous regions of Côte d’Ivoire and Ghana, West Africa and Brazil. Cocoa is a fairly easily grown but well-developed plant in Africa, despite the fact that it is located in Central and South America.

      Cocoa and the environment

      In Ghana, there is ample evidence that the benefits of the cocoa industry can only be saved by protecting the environment.

      Despite the huge economic benefits, the region is facing a recession. Coconut is an underground tree; this means that it grows well in the shade in a forest area. Land formation and exploration in the region also support cocoa production. Finally, good rainfall and temperature conditions can be found in the forest region. Deforestation poses a serious threat to cocoa production in Ghana as it cannot relocate to other regions.

      Evidence also shows that unhealthy environmental practices reduce cocoa production, despite the need to increase productivity.

      For example, after clearing innocent forests, agricultural land poses a major threat to wildlife species.

      Numerous studies show the results of the use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides and pesticides to increase cocoa production and eradicate diseases and pests. These chemicals can destroy nutrients that contaminate soil nutrients near cocoa grasses. The environmental costs of these agricultural systems need to be reduced.

      The main reason for deforestation in cocoa production is dietary rules. Studies have shown that since 1999. About 3,000 miles of alternative food roads have been built to connect cocoa trees to stores.

      Way Forward

      To produce cocoa in the environment, local authorities should take responsibility for enforcing deforestation and agrochemical laws. Local representatives, traditional leaders and community members are close to the problems associated with chemical pollution and economic damage. They can best overcome the problem.

      For example, these groups and individuals can help analyze the agricultural practices of local farmers. Local government policy on the working environment in Latin America and the Caribbean.

      Facilities such as the district committee, the forestry committee and the environmental agency must have the necessary technological equipment to monitor and comply with environmental regulations. This device may include unmanned aerial vehicles for tracking and GPS devices for tracking the location of cocoa grass.

      In cooperation with the Environment Agency, the Ghana Cocoa Board should train cocoa growers and use agrochemicals to avoid water pollution. Farmers should be encouraged to use organic fertilizers, such as poultry manure, as well as to control infectious diseases, as the system is known to be environmentally friendly.

      The environmental impact of some unsustainable agricultural practices can also be eliminated by forcing coastal agricultural land-use systems. The Ghana Planning Planning Guide requires a stop of at least 100 feet on either side of the river.

      One challenge is the small number of cocoa growers in Ghana. Environmental planning is more effective when these groups have a higher level of environmental awareness. This means that efforts should be made to improve the learning environment for learners of cocoa.
