  Mr Amenya has helped me a lot we don't know each other but when I called him far from new York , he did call Hohoe cocoabod and asked them to help me.
  we are currently planting our 80th acre of cocoa within 3 years in Avatime biakpa in volta region.
  The district manager in Hohoe has also been supporting my farm so much. Mr Ofori. My target is to create job and also break the global record of 300 acres.

  I think is good idea only when we continue to help cocoa processing and consumption countries to create wealth and benefit from our backs. Is a fact that greater percentage of broad line cocoa benefits from cultivation to consumption go to advance countries, for example our inability to price the beans which is our end point. So when are we going to encourage the participation of our brains in pricing, processing, consumption, etc ie in areas where the actual benefits lie other than always thinking on ways to serve white people with our muscles and resources and after go empty hands? Many years of cocoa beans production have we changed from third world to first? So why can't we change our strategy? I believe the evidence and testimony are there for us all to see!

  It's a good idea
  Why is it that Ghanaian youth farmers are not willing to go into cocoa production but must be persuaded into it
  The issue is about RESULTS NOT ACTIVITY OR NICE PROGRAMMES

  I believe there is no incentives in it again, everybody is encouraging their ward to go to sch rather than farming, after sch see how much you can earn in a month and by the end of the year, e.g doctor, banker, lawyer, etc compared to a farmer, there is no longer satisfaction in farming again,
