Production & Processing

Cocoa Orchard

The model showcases innovations in genetics, horticultural technology and mechanisation to reduce labour use, improve labour efficiency, reduce cost of production and increase yield 16-fold and reduce cost of production by 50%.

Fermentation & Processing

To keep the T & T cocoa industry in the forefront in the face of emerging competition in the fine/flavour sector, CRC has developed technologies in fermentation and drying specific to cocoa genetic groups, which will optimise their flavour potentials.

We have also developed a pioneering small-scale fermentation and drying technology to support estate origin branding opportunities. We are working on developing varietal specific brands; which is totally new for the industry, by optimising the fermentation and drying for each variety.
