Côte d'Ivoire plans a production limit of 2 million tonnes

In order to influence international market prices, the Conseil du Café-Cacao (CCC) plans to stabilise the cocoa harvest at 2 million tonnes from the 2020/21 sales campaign (launched October 2020).

The current 2018/19 harvest will presumably reach a record level of 2.25 million tonnes. As a result, production must fall by more than 11 percent by 2020/21. Dr. Yves Brahima Koné, director of the CCC, told the Bloomberg news agency that he wanted to stop the distribution of plant material and limit the expansion of cultivation areas. The CCC also wants to improve the registration of producers and farmland.
