INTEGRATED COCOA AGROFORESTRY AND POST-HARVEST SOLUTIONS IN PERU

FORLIANCE has been providing comprehensive advisory services to a client during the design and establishment of cocoa plantations in Peru. This includes supervising sustainably managed cocoa agroforestry systems to cultivate fine cocoa varieties. Our involvement extends to conducting thorough site assessments and evaluations, which include collecting and analyzing cocoa bean, soil, and leaf samples. This process ensures that the plant system composition, including the selection of appropriate cocoa varieties and management plans, is tailored to local conditions. 

In addition to addressing challenges related to cadmium levels and compliance with European Union regulations, FORLIANCE implemented advanced post-harvesting and storage technologies. These efforts enhance the overall production process and ensure high-quality output. The cocoa projects also offer significant environmental benefits, such as biodiversity enhancement, soil and climate protection, and stabilization of the microclimate in the affected region.
