Description

PRO PLANTEURS III builds on two previous five year phases (2015-2020, 2020-2025) that professionalized cocoa cooperatives and improved production systems in Côte d'Ivoire. To date, 47 cooperatives have strengthened management and services, helping raise average yields and farm incomes by about 30% among some 15,000 farms. Jointly with companies from the German Initiative on Sustainable Cocoa (GISCO) the project created seven village forest protection committees and 58 savings-groups and established 40 child-labor monitoring committees. Since 2024, 80 women have been implementing child labor prevention measures. Launched in 2025, the third phase is part of the Program entitled "Protection, Restoration and Sustainable Management of Forests and Biodiversity as Natural Life Support Systems in Côte d'Ivoire." The project is integrated into the program's landscape approach, balancing economic and ecological objectives. By promoting sustainable production practices, it helps curb the continued destruction of forest landscapes caused by cocoa cultivation and contributes to the program's overall aim of conserving biodiversity and forest landscapes. The project's objective is to adapt the cocoa supply chain in regions around the Bossématié reserve to economic, regulatory, environmental and social challenges. It emphasizes sustainable production aligned with the ARS 1000 standard and the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), and control of the cocoa swollen shoot virus. Interventions aim to curb deforestation and increase farm resilience through diversification and yield improvements. F
