And the result, both in flavor and ethics, is worlds apart. <\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>But what about the price of cocoa itself?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We often talk about the price of chocolate. But until the 2024 cocoa crisis, few were paying attention to the cost of cocoa,the main ingredient.<\/p>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In many producing countries, farmers cannot earn a living wage. Cocoa is still predominantly grown by hand, by an estimated 40&nbsp;million small-scale producers, often in precarious conditions. <\/p>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before the 2024 crisis, average prices looked like this:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"lead\">Farmgate price (direct to farmer): $1 to $1.50&nbsp;per kilo of dried beans<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"lead\">FOB price (ready for export): about $2&nbsp;per kilo, depending on the global market<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These are extremely low prices,insufficient to cover even basic needs.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>A steadily declining value<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 1950, a ton of cocoa was worth about $4,600 (adjusted for inflation).<\/p>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By 2017, it was down to $2,&nbsp;000&nbsp;. And yet cultivation methods have barely evolved. <\/p>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"lead\">A cocoa tree takes six years before yielding its first harvest.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"lead\">Over 25 years, a producer can expect to earn just \u20ac782 per hectare.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is an alarming figure, and it shows that the current system is far from sustainable.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What about inflation?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A German study showed that the price of a milk chocolate bar in 2013 was the same as in 1980. Had it followed inflation, it would be four times higher. <\/p>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This drop is not due to productivity gains,cocoa is not an easily industrialized crop. It reflects constant pressure to reduce prices paid to producers. <\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What happened in the 2024 crisis?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2024, the price of cocoa surged to historic levels. In just a few months, it jumped from $2,500 to over $10,000 per ton on international markets. A modern record.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But why this massive spike,and what does it reveal about the real state of the cocoa industry? <\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>A structural crisis with deep roots<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is not just a market blip,it\u2019s a crisis rooted in systemic failures.  <\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<h3><em> Sharp drop in harvests<\/em><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2023\u20132024, the top cocoa-producing nations (Ivory Coast and Ghana) faced disastrous harvests:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"lead\">Excess rain boosted the spread of disease (notably swollen shoot virus)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"lead\">Prolonged droughts weakened the trees<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"lead\">Soils, depleted by years of monoculture, could not compensate<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Result: global production dropped by over 20% in a single year.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<h3><em> Farmer disengagement<\/em><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For decades, low cocoa prices made farming unprofitable.

Not everyone benefits equally. <\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>A long-overdue price correction,but still fragile<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As cocoa markets soared, producing countries were forced to finally raise the prices paid to farmers. The &nbsp;farmgate price&nbsp; nearly doubled in West Africa and even tripled in some parts of Latin America. <\/p>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This long-overdue increase was necessary to offset the rising cost of living, pricier farming inputs, and climate-related losses.<\/p>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yet despite this jump, a truly decent income remains out of reach for most African producers. Worse still, this price correction is fragile,it reflects a crisis, not a structural shift. There is no guarantee it will last.  <\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Orf\u00e8ve\u2019s Approach<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At Orf\u00e8ve, this crisis does not change our core commitment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We have always paid well above market rates for our beans.<\/p>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We work only with producers and cooperatives engaged in sustainable practices.<\/p>\n<p class=\"lead\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We believe the real price of cocoa is the one that allows farmers to live with dignity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"lead\">This crisis simply confirms what we\u2019ve said from day one:<br\/>No chocolate is truly sustainable unless those who grow it can make a living from it.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#text-4112614815 {\n  text-align: left;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1332725684\" class=\"col medium-3 small-12 large-3\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-812687991\">\n\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1668760288\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner text-center\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/orfeve.com\/en\/chocolate-uncovered\/understanding-cocoa\/cocoa-origins-plantations\/\" class=\"button primary is-outline\" >\n\t\t<span>Previous article<\/span>\n\t<\/a>\n\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1347419876\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner text-center\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/orfeve.com\/en\/chocolate-uncovered\/understanding-cocoa\/fermentation-cacao\/\" class=\"button primary is-outline\" >\n\t\t<span>Next article<\/span>\n\t<\/a>\n\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":29074,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-29143","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.2 (Yoast SEO v28.2) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>What Is the Fair Price of Chocolate? - ORF\u00c8VE Chocolat suisse bean-to-bar<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"What is the true price of chocolate?
