Cocoa farmers deserve a fair share of the value created from their hard work.

Under Section 57(3) of the new Cocoa Board Act, Ghanaian cocoa farmers are guaranteed not less than 70% of the Gross Free on Board (FOB) price.

That means at least 70% goes to the farmer, while the remaining 30% supports the wider cocoa value chain.

As global cocoa prices change, the commitment to fair and sustainable returns for our farmers remains essential.
