Study on Policy and Regulation for Sustainable Cocoa in the Philippines. CACAOmustahan. Volume 1, Issue 1. February 2023. Report highlights from SFITAL Philippines
Based on the 2019 data from the Philippine Statistics Authority, the country’s average production of cacao remains to be at 0.5 to 1 kilogram per tree per year. This shows that the Philippines is still far from achieving its Cacao challenge of producing 2 kilograms of cacao per tree per year. The achievement of this target does not rely solely on biophysical and environmental factors. The policy and regulations surrounding cacao production in the country also plays a huge role in obtaining this goal.
