Government committed to revamping cocoa industry – COCOBOD
Samuel Addo Agyakwa, Central Regional Director of the Ghana Cocoa Board (COCOBOD), has reaffirmed the Government’s commitment to implementing policies and programmes to strengthen the cocoa sector.
He expressed concern that the recent producer price reduction had discouraged some cocoa farmers and farm labourers from maintaining their farms and appealed to the Government to review the producer price to restore confidence in the sector.
He called on chiefs and farmers to support Government efforts aimed at revitalising the cocoa sector to increase foreign exchange earnings and strengthen the economy.
