Which one of the following is NOT a major coco producer country ?

Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: A

Explanation

Cocoa (Theobroma cacao) is a tropical plant that requires a hot and humid climate, typically grown in the "Cocoa Belt" within 20° north and south of the Equator. Ivory Coast, Ghana, and Cameroon are among the world's leading cocoa producers, all located in West Africa. Ivory Coast is the world's largest producer, followed by Ghana. Together, West African nations account for nearly 70% of global cocoa production. Latvia is a Baltic country in Northern Europe with a temperate climate, making it geographically and climatically impossible to cultivate cocoa as a major crop. While Latvia may have a chocolate processing industry, it does not produce the raw cocoa beans.
