Description
Description | The Project, which would be the first stage of a program to rehabilitate cocoa production in the Western State of Nigeria, consists of the planting of about 16,500 acres of new cocoa and the replanting of about 27,000 acres currently under old cocoa trees producing uneconomic yields. A Project Unit, responsible to the Ministry of Agriculture and Natural Resources of Western State, would be established to administer the project and conduct soil surveys. Some 450 agricultural superintendents, agricultural assistants and special labourers would be trained in modern cocoa production techniques with the assistance and cooperation of the Cocoa Research Institute of Nigeria which is located in Western State. The approximately 8,000 participating farmers would receive credits in cash and in kind for labour, seedlings, fertilizers and pesticides directly from the Project Unit. The project would also include provision of vehicles and equipment required to prepare a project for a second stage of Western State's cocoa rehabilitation program. |
