The cocoa yield gap in Ghana: A quantification and an analysis of factors that could narrow the gap
CONTEXT Global cocoa production is largely concentrated in West Africa where over 70% of cocoa is produced. Here, cocoa farming is largely a rain-fed, low-input system with low average yields, which are expected to decline with climate change. With increasing demand, there is a need to evaluate oppo...
