How climate change is making chocolate production more challenging
81% Informative
Cacao trees need warm temperatures, high humidity and reliable rainfall.
Jessica Fanzo : Less predictable weather, climate variability and climate change are affecting cocoa production.
She says cocoa production is declining and chocolate prices are rising.
Fanzo says there are ways to adapt to these effects, and are being practiced.
In 2023 , cocoa yields were low in both Cote D’Ivoire and Ghana , major producers, due to low rainfall and disease, sending prices skyrocketing.
Consumers can look for brands that source chocolate from farms that support agroforestry, such as shade-grown cocoa production.
