코코아콩 인사이트

There is a big problem with the best-selling pleasure items: the price of cocoa has almost tripled, and the price of arabica coffee has hit a 40-year record.

(Agraria.pe) Coffee and cocoa have been the main exports in the world last year, and have kept many economies on edge due to their production difficulties and fluctuating prices. For this reason, Nataly Fabrikantova, founder of Marcafab, a marketing and development agency for the Coffee and Cocoa sector of cooperatives and producers in Peru, developed a forecasting exercise on what to expect.

As part of the Procompite Competitive Fund, the Regional Government of Cusco delivered equipment valued at S/600,000 to strengthen honey and cocoa production, benefiting producers in the province of La Convención. The objective is to improve the capacities of small producers and entrepreneurs from the Miel del Inka Beekeepers Association and the Alto Urubamba Coffee Agrarian Cooperative, who received centrifuges, decanters, dehumidifiers, among other equipment. It should be remembered that regional and local governments co-finance Organized Economic Agents (AEO) through Procompite competitive processes, allowing 10% of the budget to be allocated to finance business plans presented by the AEO, destined for public investment projects (without considering official credit operations, donations and transfers as a source of financing).
