Govt raises 2025/26 cocoa price by GH₵400
The government has increased the price for the 2025/26 cocoa crop season by GH₵400.
This adjustment reflects efforts to support cocoa farmers and boost the agricultural sector's productivity.
By raising the price, the government aims to provide better income for cocoa farmers, encouraging higher production and improving the livelihoods of those involved in cocoa cultivation.
The cocoa industry is a crucial part of the national economy, and this price increase is expected to strengthen Ghana's position in the global cocoa market.
The move also demonstrates the government's commitment to sustaining growth in the agricultural sector through fair pricing policies.
Farmers are likely to benefit from enhanced earnings, which can lead to increased investment in farming inputs and adoption of improved farming practices.
Overall, the GH₵400 price increase for the cocoa crop season is a positive step toward enhancing the welfare of cocoa farmers and ensuring the continued success of Ghana's cocoa industry in 2025 and beyond.
