Cocoa 
Production 
and 
Processing 
Technology
It 
is 
my 
vision 
that 
this 
book 
will 
inspire 
all 
bulk 
cocoa-producing 
countries 
across 
the 
world 
to 
strive 
at 
producing 
high-quality 
cocoa 
beans, 
similar 
to 
those 
of 
Ghana 
beans, 
for 
the 
global 
cocoa 
market 
and 
as 
well 
inspire 
many 
local 
and 
multinational 
cocoa-processing 
industries 
in 
their 
quest 
for 
adding 
value 
to 
the 
many 
raw 
materials 
that 
are 
pro-
duced 
within 
these 
countries, 
especially 
the 
magic 
beans 
from 
the 
golden 
pod, 
cocoa.
