Major cocoa buyers have agreed to pay a premium and back a price floor on cocoa sold by Ghana and Côte d’Ivoireas part of an agreement reached last Friday to combat poverty among farmers.

Cocoa industry players will back a fixed “living income differential” (LID) of $400 a tonne on all cocoa contracts sold byCôte d’Ivoire or Ghana, two top global cocoa producers.

Buyers will also pay a country premium that will enable cocoa regulators in both countries to reach a target floor price of $2,600 per tonne which should allow farmers to earn a minimum of 70 per cent of the target floor price.

Signatories include Hershey (HSY.N), Mars, Blommer Chocolate, Nestle (NESN.S), Sucden, Mondelez (MDLZ.O), Touton, Barry Callebaut (BARN.S), Cargill, Ferrero, Olam and Ecom Trading.

Both countries have struggled to achieve that price target, prompting the Cote d’Ivoire-Ghana Cocoa Initiative (CIGCI) to work with the industry on a price mechanism.

“Companies in the cocoa value chain have met with the governments of Cote d’Ivoire and Ghana to renew support for the LID as a starting point towards the pathway to achieving living incomes for farmers,” the CIGCI and both countries’ cocoa regulators said in a joint statement.

Touton Chief Executive Patrick De Boussac said the company was trying to improve pay for farmers.

“What we have signed for today is a better remuneration for planters,” De Boussac said.

Yves BrahimaKone, chief executive of the Ivory Coast Cocoa and Coffee Council, said companies had been dragging their feet on LID commitments, hindering efforts to make the industry more sustainable.

“The aim of the pact is to allow all actors in the cocoa value chain to play their role and respect their engagements,” he said.
