Quite scary seeing the figures on #cocoa production in 2023 and 2024. The start of the 2024 harvest was OK, but early signs suggest it may not stay that way. We apparently need a few good years of cocoa production to make the supply deficit, but climate change, ageing trees, #CropPests and #CropDiseases mean "good years" may become the exception. I guess we will see how this affects confectionary prices in shops.
