Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Almost five million tonnes of cocoa produced annually drives the US$100 billion global chocolate industry. To sustain the industry, cacao planting materials (seeds and clones) have been successfully moved from the Amazon forests in America to the humid tropical forests of Africa, Asia, and Australia. In more than 150 years of commercial cacao cultivation, smallholder farmers that supply the bulk of cocoa beans still face several production constraints that impede their efficiency. Scientific technologies have therefore been deployed to remove these constraints by ensuring a continuous supply of good quality cocoa beans to meet growing global demand. This book provides insight into these scientific advances to address these current and emerging problems and to assure the sustainability of the global cocoa industry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "There is a growing demand for cocoa. However, cultivation is dependent on ageing trees with low yields and increasing vulnerability to disease. There is growing concern about the environmental impact of cultivation in areas soil health and biodiversity. There is therefore an urgent need to make cocoa cultivation more efficient and sustainable to ensure a successful future. Volume 1 focuses on breeding and cultivation. Part 1 reviews the critical issue of enhancing genetic diversity. Building on this foundation, Part 2 summarises the latest research on breeding improved varieties. The third part of the book assesses improvements in cultivation techniques to make the most of these new varieties. The final part of the book considers safety and quality issues. With its distinguished editor and international range of expert authors, this volume will be a standard reference for cocoa scientists, growers and processors. It is accompanied by a companion volume which focuses on pest, disease and sustainability issues."--Provided by publisher.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) is a sacred tree and noble resource from South America. The Mayans and other early civilizations in Central America used cacao beans as tokens, which were subsequently transported to Europe to nurture monarchies and elites. Based on the discovery of cacao’s commercial potential and attributes, new cocoa plantations were established in other parts of the world, including Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean. Thus, cocoa has become an important cash crop in Africa, Central and South America, and Asia, where it is a major foreign exchange earner, industrial raw material, support for livelihood, and ecosystem services provision. Based on its global importance, there has been an increased need for the expansion of cultivation to meet the rising demand for cacao beans. Global environmental change, including climate change, variability, and weather extremes, has established new environmental boundaries with implications for area suitability for cocoa production and sustainability. Efforts to unlock the potentials of the established environmental boundaries may be built on the development and adoption of agrotechnological practices and integration of climate resilience for harnessing opportunities and potentials of the new environment, and thus, extension of the frontiers of cacao cultivation to meet the increasing global demand for cocoa beans. This book, “Shifting Frontiers of Theobroma Cacao - Opportunities and Challenges for Production” presents a comprehensive perspective of the interactions of changing environmental conditions, cocoa production, and sustainability. The book illuminates the challenges climate change presents for cocoa production and sustainability. It provides insights into the need for cocoa actors within the cocoa sector to strengthen climate mitigation and resilience building and to come to grips with the realities, magnitude, and inevitable persistence of climate challenges to cocoa production and sustainability.

Book excerpt: Cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.), is a plantation commodity with high economic value. Cocoa is a type of plantation crop that is very popular with its fruit processing. Chocolate is a product derived from cocoa beans. This plant, which is the raw material for chocolate, can bear fruit throughout the year. This plant is a tropical plant that is suitable for soil culture and climate in Indonesia. We have written this textbook for graduate students and researchers in field of agricultural, especially cocoa cultivation. This book was compiled as a form of learning reference book for the cultivation of cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.). In the literature, preference has been given to more recent publications. Nevertheless, representative examples of classical contributions are also cited in the various sections. Although this book is written by 2 persons, it is nevertheless the product of cooperation at various levels. Our interest in plant cultivation and integrated pest and disease control of plant.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chocolate is consumed by people of all ages in all segments of society throughout the world. However, recent changes in legislative frameworks, environmental concerns and increasing attention towards sustainability have stimulated the chocolate industry to reconsider their management policy. Current books in the market cover chocolate manufacture without taking into account sustainable practices of production, consumption and market aspects. Trends in Sustainable Chocolate Production fills this knowledge gap by covering all the important aspects of chocolate industry (manufacture, functionality, sustainability of the supply chain, commercialization aspects and market characteristics) in one reference. Starting with the health outcomes of chocolate and an overview of its manufacture, the book explores techniques to improve the functionality, flavor and microstructure of chocolate, as well as its environmental impact through sustainable practices and supply chains. By connecting research to industry and consumer interests, this text aims to support members of the scientific community, professionals and enterprises working to develop a sustainable chocolate sector.

This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The future of fine chocolate depends on strengthening cocoa cooperatives in Latin America where the bulk of Fairtrade, organic & unique flavor profiles originate. These small farmer cocoa co-ops need to implement member investment plans (known as member equity), develop model farms & training for rapid productivity gains & adopt innovative quality methodologies to meet this rapidly growing consumer demand. The book explains what a co-op is and is not and its role in economic and social development. Development organizations, chocolate industry and Fair Trade advocates should better understand co-ops as group-based businesses that can lift small cocoa farmers out of poverty. Successful programs are presented on member equity, innovative farmer training & post-harvest processing, and bottom-up quality methodologies with new tools and approaches that cocoa co-ops can adopt. Those who loves dark fine chocolates should read this book.
