Environmental effects of cocoa production

The environmental effects of cocoa production, such commonly as herbicide resistance and deforestation are becoming much more severe as demand for cocoa increases in present day.
==Background==
Cocoa beans are a high demand consumer item all over the world. They are used in products such as chocolate, candy bars, beverages and cocoa powder. However, cocoa farming and the production of cocoa beans are extremely fragile and labour-intensive processes. The process begins with a Cacao plant, or Theobroma Cacao, in which the beans are extracted from pods that grow directly on branches. Each pod contains roughly 30 to 50 beans.〔The European Chocolate and Cocoa Industry. (n.d.). Cocoa Farming: an Overview. http://www.cocoafarming.org.uk/Cocoa_farming_bw_v8_uk.pdf〕 After the beans are extracted they must go through a time-consuming process of natural fermenting and drying.〔The European Chocolate and Cocoa Industry. (n.d.). Cocoa Farming: an Overview. http://www.cocoafarming.org.uk/Cocoa_farming_bw_v8_uk.pdf〕 The farming process of cocoa can damage the environment depending on the practices of the farmer, as well as be limited by the environment itself. Global Climate Change, for example, causes longer drought seasons making it more difficult for farmers to plant and sustain new Cacao trees.〔Anim-Kwapong, G. J., Frimpong, E. B. (2004) Vulnerability and Adaptation Assessment Under the Netherlands Climate Change Studies Assistance Programme Phase 2 (NCCSAP2): Vulnerability of agriculture to climate change- impact of climate change on cocoa production. Ghana, Cocoa Research Institute of Ghana.〕 Most of the environmental impact comes from Co2.
