dc.description.abstract

The Cocoa Pod Borer (CPB) (Conopomorpha cramerella) currently threatens PNG's cocoa industry. Traditional extension approaches have been unable to stop the decline in smallholder production. The thesis argues that effective management of CPB requires new and more holistic extension approaches to encourage cocoa farming families to continue with cocoa. his study examined a new private sector-smallholder partnership initiated by a major cocoa Texporter, which was found to provide several benefits to smallholder farmers.
