%X The Davao Region is the ‘cacao capital’ of the Philippines as it produces majority of the country’s cacao yield. However, there are still areas in the region that are not maximized; one of which is the province of Davao de Oro (formerly Compostela Valley). This is despite the resources being devoted by the national and local government, as well as international funding institutions, in strengthening the cacao industry in the province, as well as the continuous expansion of areas planted with cacao; some of which used to be forests.
