Above-average rain in most of Ivory Coast's main cocoa growing regions last week helped the October-to-March main crop to strengthen, farmers said on Monday, adding there were plenty of pods, known as cherelles, on trees.
The world's top cocoa producer is in its rainy season which runs officially from April to mid-November.
"Everything's fine with the trees at the moment. If we get enough sunshine over the coming weeks, many cherelles will survive to produce a lot of harvest," said Raymond Dasse, who farms near the western region of Soubre, where 39.7 millimetres fell last week, 28 mm above the five-year average.
