Detailed Solution
Cote d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast) and Ghana are widely recognized as the two largest cocoa producers globally. These West African nations collectively account for over 50% of the world's cocoa supply.
Cocoa cultivation thrives in tropical regions near the Equator, where specific climate conditions are ideal. The dominance of these two countries in cocoa production is a significant aspect of global agricultural trade and economic geography.
