Abstract

The purpose of the research was to forecast the very long-term developments taking place in cocoa through to 1990-2000. The research was designed to determine the feasibility of investment in cocoa. As such all aspects of the cocoa and chocolate industries were analysed. Cocoa bean prices declining since 1977 will continue to decline in real terms until 1985-87 and will then start to climb again to reach a peak in 1995 of some US dollars 5 000 per tonne 1984 constant terms. Despite relative stagnation of cocoa consumption in the 1970's consumption was forecast to increase well through to 2000
