- NATURAL RESOURCES/EXTRACTIVE INDUSTRIES
- AGRICULTURE
- The process of growing and harvesting the raw materials.
- Chocolate production begins with harvesting cocoa in a forest. Cocoa comes from tropical evergreen
Cocoa trees which grown in wet lowland tropics of Central/South America, West Africa. Southeast Asia.
It is harvested manually.
- 1. Seed pods of cocoa will be collected. They will then be filtered through to determine which ones to
keep. They will be sorted out into piles, preparing them for fermentation.
- 2. They’re placed in large, heated trays or covered with large banana leaves. Depending on the climate,
they might just be heated by the sun. Workers stir up the beans once in a while so all are equally
fermented. This is when the beans turn brown - 5 to 8 days.
- 3. Drying the cocoa seeds. Now, the farmers will spread out the fermented seeds onto trays, and leave
them out in the sun for about a week. Afterwards, they are sent out to manufacturers, for further work.
