Production and trade data on cocoa value chain in Ghana
Authors/Creators
Description
This dataset covers upstream, midstream and downstream behavioural patterns that were used to identify precursors of vulnerabilities in Ghana’s cocoa value chain. Data were obtained via focus group discussions and individual interviews with cocoa farmers in Ghana and extracted from annual reports of the global cocoa industry published by the International Cocoa Organisation. Behavioural patterns were established from transcripts and reports using NVivo as the computer-assisted qualitative data analysis software.
Notes
Primary data cover factors that influence pre-harvest and postharvest activities, herein referred to as upstream activities, in the cocoa value chain. Data are presented as transcripts of thirty individual interviews and seven focus group discussions. Cocoa farmers from seven districts in five cocoa growing regions in Ghana (Ashanti, Central, Brong Ahafo, Western and Volta) participated in the interviews and focus group discussions.
