Behind every sack of cacao exported by COOPAECA is a farm, a family and years of steady work in the fields. The productive farm support program seeks to strengthen that connection by providing members with direct technical assistance on their own land.

Individual follow-up for every farm

A team of agricultural technicians periodically visits partner farms to assess plant health, planting density, pruning and shade practices, and soil conditions. Every visit is recorded, allowing the cooperative to maintain a production history for each family unit and provide specific recommendations suited to its circumstances.

This support is not limited to agronomy: it also covers harvest records, responsible pest management and the planned renewal of aging plantations, with the aim of sustaining long-term productivity.

Benefits for producers

  • Free technical assessment of the farm.
  • Agronomic management recommendations adapted to each soil.
  • Better origin traceability for export purposes.
  • Greater year-to-year production stability.

Strengthening productive farms ultimately strengthens the cooperative itself: the stronger its agricultural base, the more consistent the supply of quality cacao that COOPAECA can offer buyers.
