The 1982/83 world cocoa bean crop is now forecast at 1.56 million tons, down S$ percent from the record 1981/82 harvest of 1.72 million tons, reflecting unfavorable growing conditions in several key producing countries. African production is forecast at 903,200 tons, 13 percent below a year earlier, as poor growing conditions have caused a sharp reduction in the Ivory Coast's harvest. South American production is expected to be off by 7 percent to 437,600 tons, reflecting dry weather in Brazil, which has reduced prospects for the temporao crop. New plantings coming into production in Malaysia are expected to boost Asia and Oceania production to a record 123,300 tons, while production in North America is forecast to remain near 100,000 tons. (Basea on past per- formance, the chances are two out of three that actual world production will not vary more than 3.5 percent from the above estimate. ) World cocoa bean grindings in 1983 are forecast to increase slightly to a record 1.61 million tons from 1.58 million tons last year. Continued poor global economic conditions and the widespread use of cocoa substitutes and extenders are preventing a more rapid expansion in consumption, despite low world sugar prices and an ample carryover of cocoa supplies. Reflecting the expected stock reduction this season, cocoa prices have been in a bullish trend during the past several months, after steadily declining throughout most of 1982. Cocoa bean prices (the average of the daily closing price of the nearest three active futures trading months on the New York market) during February averaged 83.9 cents per pound, up from 77.6 cents in January and were well above the yearly low of 64.8 cents in November 1982. However, prices again could come under pressure later this year if weather conditions are favorable for the development of the 1983/84 crop, which could prove to be a record, aS new plantings come into production and young trees increase in productivity in Malaysia, the Ivory Coast, and Brazil. Note: All tons are metric (2,204.6 lbs).

Ecuador's producing areas have been hit by heavy rains and flooding, which have resulted in increased incidence of pod rot and have delayed fermentation and drying procedures. Production is forecast at 85,000 tons, about unchanged from the 1981/82 harvest of 87,500 tons, as new plantings coming into bearing and improved soil moisture conditions have largely offset pod rot losses. The Government is supporting the chocolate manufacturing industry by granting tax exemption certificates for up to 25 percent of the f.o.b. value of choco- lates exports. Exports of chocolates rose sharply during 1982 to 24,355 tons valued at $25.6 million, compared with 1981 shipments of only 2,680 tons valued at $5.2 million and 146 tons valued at $488,000 in 1980. It has been proposed that similar tax exemption certificates be allowed for exports of semi-processed products (liquor/paste, butter, and cake/powder) as well.

Horticultural and Tropical Products Division, FAS/USDA MAJOR CONSUMERS U.S. imports of cocoa beans and products curing 1982 were valued at $704.4 million, down from $915.6 million in 1981, reflecting smaller volume as well as lower world prices. The smaller imports were a result of importers and manufacturers drawing down inventories in a declining market and high interest rates, which discouraged users from carrying more stocks than were actually needed to maintain operations. Imports of cocoa beans, chocolate liquor, cocoa butter, and unsweetened powder/cake were lower, while increases were recorded for sweetened chocolate, sweetened cocoa powder, and for cocoa and chocolate confectionery and coatings. Most of the decline in bean imports was attributed to a sharp drop in shipments from the Ivory Coast. However, U.S. exports of cocoa products were slightly higher at $62.7 million, compared with $60 million a year earlier. U.S. cocoa bean grindincgs rose nearly 5 percent in 1982 to 199,126 tons, and were at their highest level since 1976 grindings of 225,347 tons. Lower cocoa prices, larger cancy bar sizes, and increased market promotion contributed to the expansion in grinaings. However, candy sales for Halloween were adversely affected by the Tylenol poisonings and copycat incidents. The Cocoa Merchants' Association of America, Inc. resumed publishing spot prices for certain origins of cocoa beans and semi-processed products on January 3, 1983. Reporting of spot prices was discontinued in the fall of 1977 in the wake of an antitrust suit against the New York Coffee & Sugar Exchange by the Justice Department. That suit, however, did not involve the association or the New York Cocoa exchange. The association now offers spot quotations for cocoa beans from the Ivory Coast, Brazil, Dominican Republic, and Ecuador; chocolate liquor from Brazil and Ecuador; African and "other" types of cocoa butter; and prices for 10-12 percent fat content natural press cake. The spot prices are ex-dock U.S. eastern seaboard, north of Hatteras, sellers option. West German cocoa bean grindings curing 1982 increased by nearly 5 percent to a record 167,043 tons. Imports of cocoa beans in 1982 were also at an all- time high, amounting to 196,400 tons, compared with 171,796 tons in 1981. Cocoa butter imports were 29,200 tons, about unchanged from a year earlier. Netherlands grindings were at a record 148,370 tons in 1982, 5 percent greater than 1981 grinc of 140,960 tons. U.K. grina also was higher at 88,044 tons, compared with 85,970 tons in 1981. U.K. imports of cocoa beans were up during 1982 and totalec 112,157 tons, with Ghana supplying 48,520 tons and Nigeria 40,149 tons. Cocoa butter imports were 25,820 tons, cocoa paste 3,739 tons, and unsweetened cocoa powder 3,284 tons.

Sse o 888 $CQET INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENTS The Executive Committee of the International Cocoa Organization met December 8-10, 1982 to discuss the Secretariat's 3 point price support feasibility study, which centers around the issue of utilizing the $75 million Brazilian bank loan to buy up to 15C,CO0 tons of cocoa on a deferred payment basis. As the study was just completec prior to the meeting, members hac little opportu- nity to examine the content in detail anc thus, little progress was made on the issues and it was decided that further ciscussions would take place at the February meetings. The Executive Committee met February 2-4, 1983,but again little or no progress was made in resolving the issues at hand, which involved the practical, legal, and economic implications of implementing the producers! proposals for purchas- ing cocoa from origins on a deferred payment basis. The International Cocoa Organization (ICCO) Council and Executive Committee are scheduled to meet March 14-25 to continue discussions on the study. As the International Cocoa Agreement is scheduled to expire in 1984, the ICCO is gearing up for negotiat- ing a new Agreement and will likely press for the Ivory Coast and the United States to become members. The Buffer Stock Fund manager has made no new purchases of cocoa since March 1982, when the cumulative total stood at 100,345 tons. Provisional dates for near term future meetings are June 1-3 for the Execu- tive Committee and Finance Committee and July 11-22 for the Council, Executive Committee and subsidiary bodies.
