ADRA has worked with the men and women of these villages, on growing, fermentation and post-harvest techniques, with a focus on sustainable cocoa crops, techniques such as pruning, grafting, crop management, assistance with fermentation box construction and drying facilities, and providing a channel to market for them. This all results in high quality and flavourful cacao beans for craft chocolate makers, and boosted incomes for families.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe premium prices families are now receiving for their cacao has already had a wide range of benefits.
