Goldstreet Business Editorial: Chocolaty musings
What’s Christmas without feasting on chocolates and smearing the festivity with generous helpings of chocolate liquor, cocoa solids and cocoa butter!
Chocolates, particularly “bitter chocolates” are in vogue across the globe but the prefix therein should cease to be the adjective that defines a cocoa farmer’s life with respect to his livelihood.
Ghana is the world’s second largest cocoa producer exporting 850,000 metric tons of cocoa each year after its neighbour – Cote d’Ivoire. This inference naturally calls for the attention of the Ghanaian government to uplift the country’s cocoa farming modalities especially because it is disheartening to note that cocoa farmers are paid only 6% of the chocolate industry’s annual worth.
Goldstreet Business Editorial: Erasing the frontiers of Ghana’s economy
Rubber has not only stretched the comfort and convenience of our daily lives but has also propelled the tyres of the economy for the countries of its origin.
It’s interesting to note from a wide perspective that the quality of rubber varies in terms of the percentage of ash content in it.
By burning a sample of rubber in the muffle furnace and calculating the calibrated weight of the leftover ash, one can check the ash percentage.
History reveals that the Gold coast experienced a rubber boom when its value soared during World War – II. During that time, bonuses were offered for latex and rubber scraps and plantations.
