Paolo pours the harvested cacao beans into the fermentation containers, marking the first stage of the drying process. On the plantation, plants will consistently yield crops for most of the year if they have access to an adequate supply of nutrients. On a large farm, this means that the harvesting season lasts for several months, necessitating separate harvests for the various cacao plant varieties. They are able to pump water by damming the river, which allows the plants to receive enough water. In the past, this was not needed because the cacao plant thrived in its natural environment without it. Nowadays, however, farmers in many areas are facing difficulties due to water shortages.
