The table chart illustrates the production of cocoa bean in different locations over a 6-year period, from 1992 to 1998.
Overall, the productivity dropped in South America, Asia, and Oceania over the period, except for North Central American, Caribbean, and Africa. Despite modest growth, Africa remained the highest production compared to the others.
Regarding the declining categories, while South America and Asia made fairly comparable tons of 568,000 and 416,000, respectively, Oceania showed a relatively low measure at 42,000 tons in the first year of the period. This was followed by a significant fluctuation in three regions, before reaching 333,000, 414,000, and 34,000 tons, representing the lowest figure.
Concerning other venues, Africa manufactured the highest amount of cocoa bean over the years, beginning at 1,397,000 tons in 1992, after which it experienced a gradual growth to 1,920,000, before plummeting to 1,822,000 tons , which was over 400,000 tons compared to the first year. Similarly, but to a lesser extent, around 52,000 and 50,000 tons was produced by Caribbean and North Central American in the initial year, after fluctuating over 6 years, the figure ended at around 68,000 and 50,000 tons in the end. In spite of gradual growth, it was produced on a yearly basis by these places.
