Influence of Fermentation Time on the Chemical and Functional Composition of Different Cocoa Clones from Southern Colombia

Cocoa bean quality depends mainly on genetic material, edaphoclimatic factors and postharvest processes such as fermentation. The impact of the fermentation process on the chemical and functional composition of different cocoa clones grown in southern Colombia was analyzed. A factorial design with r...
