Global Cocoa Market Weekly Summary: Key Highlights for October 5, 2024
- Ghana’s Cocoa Industry Challenges: Ghana, once a leader in cocoa production, is facing significant challenges that could undermine its position in the global market. Climate change is altering rainfall patterns, reducing cocoa arable land, and impacting yields. Additionally, the determination of cocoa prices in foreign markets diminishes Ghana’s control over its cocoa exports. Artisanal gold mining is threatening fertile cocoa lands, raising environmental concerns that could affect cocoa's market acceptance, particularly in the EU. Efforts are underway to manage mining conflicts and strengthen industry policies.
- Ivory Coast Cocoa Market: As the world’s largest cocoa producer, Ivory Coast is planning a 23% increase in farmgate prices, raising the cost to $3,400 per ton. This increase is a response to climate-related production shortfalls, including floods and diseases. The sector is also grappling with illegal cocoa bean smuggling, with an estimated 200,000 tons being moved illicitly, which threatens the economic stability of its cocoa industry. These challenges demand strategic adjustments to safeguard the industry’s future.
- European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR): The upcoming implementation of the EUDR will significantly impact cocoa imports into the EU. This regulation mandates that cocoa products must not be linked to areas cleared of forests post-2020, posing logistical and compliance challenges, especially for smallholder farmers. These producers may face significant barriers to accessing the EU market, potentially affecting global cocoa trade dynamics. The regulation is set to take effect by the end of December, underscoring the EU's commitment to environmental sustainability but creating challenges for cocoa suppliers.
