Around 10,000 to 15,000 cacao farmers

nationwide.

Annual consumption in beans equivalent is

about 25,000 MT

Average cacao beans production: 6-7 T MT

Current average yield per tree is 1.30 kg dried

beans.

Average value of imports: USD 42M, chocolate

products and consumable not included

FACTS AND FINDINGS

Average value of exports:

USD 3.5 million

Major growing regions are :

Davao Region, Northern

Mindanao, CARAGA, Western

Mindanao, and Eastern

Visayas.

Davao Region produced 77%

of cacao beans supply in the

last 5 years (2006-2011).

A. Germplasm Collection

1. Eighty-eight (88) accessions collected

all over the country.

2. Twenty-five (25) collected from abroad.

3. Twelve (17) new hybrids introduced

into the country through the INGENIC

Asia- Pacific Program for Cocoa.

4. Coordinated and financed by MARS

Inc., and World Cocoa Foundation

(WCF)
