GHANA_. b
Ghana, a west African country along the shores
of the Gulf of Guinea, is often referred to as' cocoa
land'. The cocoa tree plays an important role in
the economy of Ghana. Cocoa was first exported
from here in 1891. Even today, Ghana is one of
the world's major producers and exporters of
cocoa along with other west African countries
like Nigeria, the Ivory Coast, and Cameroon.
Cocoa cultivation in Ghana is mainly
concentrated in the towns of Accra, Kumasi,
and Takoradi. Besides the coastal regions, cocoa
is also grown further inland where climatic
conditions are suitable.
