Share of Philippines to
global cacao production is
less than 1%
Mindanao produces 90% of the
countrys cacao production; its
target production in 2020
is 100,000 MT (global ave annual

Provision of better planting materials via existing nurseries
Nurseries:
Short Term
Acquisition of new planting materials or
improvement of existing materials to
maintain competitiveness
Subsidized cost of planting materials
Training on nursery management
Push for accreditation of all nurseries
Long Term
R&D investment to appropriate partners in
the light of new challenges such as climate
change and quality requirement of

Soil Mapping
Determine soil health and produce soil

Soils are not only thirsty but also
hungry
(effects of micronutrients)
Organize farmers and service providers
to minimize transaction costs (this will
abate inefficiencies in prices
nationwide)
Efficient nutrient management is critical

Export Marketing
Exporters:
12 Exporters based in Davao
Farmers organization is very important so that they
themselves can process the beans, serve as
integrators or consolidators at the same time
to directly deal with multinationals
Integrators & exporters are the two major parties
oiling the market chain because they provide prefinancing or working capital to farmers and even
act as facilitators to loans.
