Lixesha lecocoa kwisiqingatha esisemazantsi e-Ivory Coast.Imidumba ivuthiwe ukuba ivunwe, eminye ijika isuka eluhlaza ibe tyheli, njengeebhanana.
Ngaphandle kokuba le mithi ayifani nayo nantoni na endiyibonileyo ngaphambili;i-quirk ye-evolution, baya kujonga ekhaya kwi-CS Lewis 'Narnia okanye i-Tolkien's Middle-earth: imithwalo yabo exabisekileyo ayikhuli ukusuka kumasebe, kodwa iphuma ngqo kwisiqu somthi.
Kungo-Okthobha, ixesha elibalulekileyo lonyaka kuluntu lwasemaphandleni oluhluphekayo oluthengisa iimbotyi zekoko - kunye nabathandi betshokolethi nabo, kuba eli lizwe lincinci le-equatorial eNtshona Afrika livelisa ngaphezu kwesinye kwisithathu secocoa yehlabathi.
Kuyo yonke i-Ivory Coast, ikoko ikhuliswa kumasimi osapho, ngalinye lihlala nje iihektare ezimbalwa.Imihlaba emincinane idluliselwa kwizizukulwana ngezizukulwana, nyana ngamnye etsala nzima, kanye njengoyise wangaphambi kwakhe.
UJean wafumana ilifa leehektare ezimbini zomhlaba xa uyise waswelekayo kwiminyaka esixhenxe eyadlulayo.Ngelo xesha wayeneminyaka eli-11 kuphela ubudala.Useneminyaka eli-18 kuphela ubudala, uye wafumana inkangeleko yendoda erhoxa kubomi obunzima, ekhangeleka ngathi akanazo iimbotyi ezimbini zokuzihlikihla kunye.
Kodwa iimbotyi yeyona nto anayo—ingxowa ezele zizo, ebotshelelwe ngokungakhathali ngasemva kwibhayisekile yakhe enomhlwa.
Ngemfuno yehlabathi yecocoa ngokulula ngaphandle konikezelo, iimbotyi zikaJean zithandeka ngakumbi kwiinkampani zetshokolethi ezinamagama amakhulu, kodwa kuthathelwa ingqalelo ukunyuka kwamaxabiso, ixabiso labo lemali lehlile kumashumi eminyaka akutshanje.
“Kunzima,” uyasixelela uJean.Uthi: “Ndikhaliphile, kodwa nam ndiyafuna uncedo,” watsho, evuma ukuba kunzima ukuphila.
UJean ulungile ezantsi kwikhonkco lokubonelela ngehlabathi elinamaleko amaninzi elibona i-cocoa iguqulwa ukusuka kwimbotyi ukuya kwibha, kwaye ngenxa yoko, i-cocoa-nomics esisiseko ichasene naye ngokuqinileyo.
Abarhwebi, abaqhubekisi, abathumeli bangaphandle kunye nabavelisi bonke bafuna umda wabo, kwaye wonke umntu enze inzuzo, inkqubo iyalela ukuba uJean - onegunya elincinci okanye elingenawo - ufumana ubuncinci bengxowa yakhe yeembotyi.
Kwilizwe apho i-cocoa ixhasa ngokuthe ngqo malunga ne-3.5 yezigidi zabantu, i-GDP yonyaka ngomntu ngamnye ayikho ngaphezu kwe-1,000 yeedola.
Ii-cocoa pods zixabiswa xa zivulwa kusetyenziswa iimela - isixhobo esisisiseko sehlathi.Bubuchwephesha obuphantsi, buyingozi kwaye bufuna abasebenzi abaninzi.Yaye ngelishwa, kulo mmandla wehlabathi, izandla ezininzi ezincinane zenza umsebenzi ongelula.
Umba wokuqeshwa kwabantwana uye wonakalise ishishini letshokolethi amashumi eminyaka;kwaye ngaphandle kokuza kuqwalaselo lwehlabathi kule minyaka ili-10 idlulileyo, yingxaki engayi kuhamba.I-systemic kwaye igxininiswe ngokunzulu kwinkcubeko, iingcambu zayo zifumaneka kwintlupheko ephazamisayo ephazamisa uluntu lwasemaphandleni: amafama angenako ukuhlawula abasebenzi abadala basebenzisa abantwana endaweni.
Ukunqanda ukuqeshwa kwabantwana nokwandisa ukufikelela kwimfundo kubonwa njengeyona ndlela ilungileyo yexesha elide yokuzisa impumelelo kwezi lali.
Abahlalutyi beshishini lecocoa kudala bephikisa ngelithi iinkampani ezifana noNestlé ziye zasilela kuxanduva lwazo lokuphucula ubomi babalimi abalima ikokoko yabo.
“Xa usiva inkampani ithetha ngokuzinza, eyona nto bathetha ngayo kukuzinza kwabo bakwazi ukuqhubeka nokuthenga i-cocoa kwixesha elizayo,” utshilo.
Kodwa uyavuma ukuba kukho inkqubela eyenziweyo."Imbono endinayo yeyokuba amanyathelo akhoyo athathwayo abaluleke ngakumbi kunoko besikubonile ngaphambili".
UFrançois Ekra ungumnikazi wentsimi yeehektare ezisixhenxe kwidolophu yaseGagnoa.Ukwangumongameli wekopolotyeni yakhe yasekuhlaleni, evelisa malunga neetoni ezili-1,200 zeembotyi zekoko ngonyaka.
UFrançois udweba umfanekiso okhathazayo ngekamva leshishini letshokolethi: Ixabiso lecocoa elimiswe ngurhulumente liphantsi kakhulu;imithi midala kwaye iyagula;ookopolotyeni abafana naye abanakufumana mali yokutyala imali yekamva.
Kancinci kancinci, ukuba irabha ihlawulwa ngcono siya kuyiyeka ikoko kuba [thina] abalimi bekoko sisebenzela ilize.”
Uyawazi amafama ajikela umva kwi-cocoa ngokupheleleyo: Apho imithi yekoko yayikade imi khona, amasimi erabha ngoku ayantshula - anengeniso eninzi kwaye enemveliso unyaka wonke.
Yaye njengakumazwe amaninzi aseAfrika, abantu basemaphandleni bayayishiya imvelaphi yabo, befuna ubomi obungcono ngokuthelela abantu abaninzi abafudukela kwikomkhulu laseAbidjan.
Ekugqibeleni iimbotyi zomfama zithengwa ngabarhwebi okanye abaphakathi abasebenza
