Ivory Coast: cocoa and scientific innovation at the heart of challenges
Ivory Coast is strengthening its technological and health capacities with the installation of its first DNA analysis laboratory, while the agricultural sector, particularly cocoa, faces structural challenges linked to residues and external economic shocks.
The Coffee Cocoa Council removed 23,000 tonnes of residual cocoa following complaints from producers, revealing tensions in the supply chain of the country's key sector.
These developments highlight the need for the world's leading cocoa economy to improve environmental governance and critical infrastructure in the face of geopolitical disruptions.
