Hi,
I have been looking for Cocoa seeds to plant in our land in Negros Occidental.. Please help me , and let me know where can we buy the seeds ..
We can go to Mindanao to buy them but it’s just too much for fare to go there from Negros Occidental..

I really appreciate any help and information.
Sincerely,
Elizabeth

P.S.
I would like to intercrop the Cocoa trees in our 5 hectare Abaca plantation ..
Please email me @ echambers2k@yahoo.com

Thanks a lot :-)

hi lynne,

the coconuts and binagay bananas are good shade plants for cacao especially when your cacao are newly planted. when your binangay are 3-5 years old, these are already floating (Maglutaw na) so wala nang magaandang bunga. so you will be harvesting na your cacao.

for more info and technical assistance, you can contact us at the bureau of plant industry, bago oshiro, davao city (silingan ra man ta). we also have planting materials of cacao variety uf 18. here are my contact details: phone: 0822862135; 0822931294; celfone no.: 09052939551; email: dpropagator2003@yahoo.com or alfred011956@gmail.com.

we have a 1.8 has lot in davao del norte planted to few coconuts and binangay. since we are surrounded with bananas, the coconuts suffered because they are no longer bearing good fruits. we hardly earn from the copra. my brothers and sisters wanted to plant cacao instead but with the bananas around, is it good for the cacao trees? can you advice us on this matter.

thanks in advance.

We are a chocolate manufacturer and museum, looking one cooperative smallholder’s cacao farm who participate in our organic bean-to-bar project.

We can buy whole or some portion of his production every year contineously and can share or support his expenses of farming in advance.

Is there any farm discussing further regarding this agenda for mutual interest ?

Hi everybody.

I am Nelson from Landcare foundation. Our organization helps/facilitates farmers improve the economic aspects by improving farming system thru agroforestry (cobination of annual crops and trees; like cacao).
