Young Cocoa Farmers petition Mahama over funding, producer price and start date for new cocoa season
The association said it remains hopeful that the government will engage cocoa farmers and other stakeholders before the start of the new purchasing season to restore confidence in the sector.
The Young Cocoa Farmers Association said one of the major challenges during the previous season was the inability of some Licensed Buying Companies (LBCs) and purchasing clerks to raise sufficient funds to purchase cocoa beans from farmers.
The Young Cocoa Farmers Association has petitioned President John Dramani Mahama to urgently provide clarity on key policies ahead of the 2026/2027 cocoa purchasing season.
