Timing is critical when applying fertilizers in cocoa production. Fertilizer application should align with the growth stages of cocoa trees. Generally, the main fertilizer application is done at the beginning of the rainy season when the trees start active growth. This ensures that the nutrients are available when the plants need them most. Additionally, split applications throughout the year may be necessary to meet the changing nutrient requirements of the cocoa trees.
