This work chronicles how the cacao plant is grown commercially in
the Philippines; how to properly grow, harvest and sell the cacao
plant is detailed. An authoritative overview of the cacao growing
process, William Scrugham Lyon's chronicle was popularly consulted
by planters and cultivators for many years after publication in the
early 20th century. He offers a concise overview of the entire
process; from choosing the seeds to plant, to germination, to
growing and tending the crop, harvesting and finally selling the
produce. Inclusive of charts which document the business model
adopted by cacao cultivators, Lyon shows how even a small plot of
land can be purposed for a steady, profitable business. At the time
he published this account in Manila in 1902, demand for cacao was
rocketing - as a result, many entrepreneurial farmers and growers
were looking at moving into the market for cacao.
