Field workers from the Cocoa Health and Extension Division (CHED) identify cocoa trees affected by swollen shoot disease on a farm in the Osino community in the Eastern Region, Ghana, February 27, 2024. In its most sobering assessment to date, according to data compiled since 2018 and obtained exclusively by Reuters, Ghana's cocoa marketing board Cocobod estimates that 590,000 hectares of plantations have been infected with swollen shoot, a virus that will ultimately kill them. Once infected with swollen shoot, plantations must be ripped out and the soil treated before cocoa can be replanted. REUTERS/Francis Kokoroko SEARCH "KOKOROKO GHANA COCOA" FOR THIS STORY.

Janet Gyamfi, 52, a cocoa farmer, reacts as she visits her cocoa plantation destroyed by illegal gold mining in the Samreboi community in the Western Region, Ghana, February 26, 2024. Surveying the stripped landscape of her farm - dotted with pools of cyanide-tainted, tea coloured waste water left by illegal gold miners - is enough to make Gyamfi break down. Only last year, the 27-hectare plot in western Ghana was covered with nearly 6,000 cocoa trees. Today, less than a dozen remain. "This farm was my only means of survival," the divorcee told Reuters, tears streaming down her cheeks. "I planned to pass it on to my children."
