Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: Why Would You Plant Theobroma cacao When You Can Plant Theobroma bicolor?
« Last post by Finca La Isla on Today at 12:47:15 PM »Cacao as a crop has been very challenging. Very serious disease problems plague it. What’s interesting is that while the price has been terrible for cacao for years it has about quadrupled in the last 6 months or so. If that price jump holds up it will certainly change the dynamic. There’s lots of people who love the idea of cultivating cacao but they’ve mostly been punished by the bad price for their efforts. Now, price relief is here so we’ll see how that plays out.
