he cacao bean, fruit of the cacao tree, acquired economic importance because it forms an essential element for the taste of chocolate, a worldwide popular delicacy. Cacao beans come in three main varieties, namely Forastero, Criollo and a cross between the two called Trinitario. In Indonesia cacao is farmed all over the country, but 75% of that is in Sulawesi and the bean variety is mostly forastero, with some criollo grown in Java and trinitario in Bali. Cacao has been one of the most important agricultural export products for Indonesia and currently being the third largest cacao producing country after Yvory Coast and Ghana, with approximately 1.5 million hectares of cacao plantations. In the past decades, the Indonesian cacao sector has experienced massive growth, driven by rapid expansion of smallholder farmer participation. Indonesian smallholders contribute â?? by far â?? most of the national production, thus outperforming big state plantations and large private estates.
