The table illustrates six different zones based on the quantity of cocoa bean producted from 1992 to 1998.
Overall, Africa consistently manufactured the highest number of cocoa bean for the most period, compared to remaining regions. Meanwhile, the lowest figure was recorded in those Oceania. Furthermore, most areas surveyed displayed overall dramatic changes, except for South America.
In more detail, Africa’s production stood at 1387000 tons, and peaked at 1920000 tons by 1996, before minimally dropping of 102000 tons in two years later (1822000 tons). In contrast, the level of cocoa bean production in Oceania had the lowest output. Between 1992 and 1998, almost no any considerable volatilies, this figure hovered around between 42000 and 34 tons.
Concerning others, the year 1998 witnessed a dip in the cocoa bean production of South America, stood at 33000, and was outnumbered by the rest of areas on the table, albeit beginning with the second top cocoa-producing region, at 568000 tons in 1992. Conversely, North Central America’s, Caribbean’s, and Asia’s cocoa bean productions changed erratically. After experiencing a decline to 42000 in 1994 and a increase to 49000 tons in 1996, the number of cocoa bean producted in North Central Ameria recoverd the starting point at 50000 tons by 1998. The Caribbean region a showed moderate growth, increasing from 52000 tons to 69000 tons in 1994 and levelling off that level until the end year, when had a marginal decrease to 68000.
Asia, on the other hand, rocketing from 416000 to 498000 tons in the first two years of survey but then falling constantly, and dipped to a larger extent to 41000 tons in 1998, a plumment similar to what happened with the quantity of production cocoa bean in South Ameria in the same period
