La plupart de nos aliments passe entre les mains de dizaines de personnes avant d'arriver en rayon. C'est vrai pour le chocolat, le café, la banane… Et pour chaque étape, il y a des défis, et il y a surtout des gens qui vivent de cette activité.Dans cette saison 6 de Nourrir le vivant, on va vous parler de quelques-uns des grands enjeux auxquels font face six filières agricoles, en commençant par le swollen shoot, une maladie qui décime la culture du cacao. Certes, en six épisodes, on ne pourra vous raconter qu'une partie de l'histoire. Mais en agriculture, "une partie de l'histoire", ça concerne bien souvent plusieurs milliers de personnes. On n'arrêtera pas demain de consommer du cacao ou du café, mais on peut faire en sorte que, du producteur au consommateur, tout le monde s'y retrouve. Parce que oui, c'est jamais juste du chocolat.Distribué par Audiomeans. Visitez audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

Sur les premiers mois de 2025, les cours mondiaux du cacao ont reflué, mais ils restent à des niveaux élevés depuis deux ans et cela pèse sur les résultats des broyeurs de fèves qui ont pour clients les géants de l'agro-alimentaire comme Nestlé ou Mondelez. L'un d'eux, le groupe suisse Barry Callebaut, vient d'abaisser ses objectifs annuels. C'est la deuxième fois en trois mois que le groupe reconsidère ses prévisions. En cause des ventes qui ont diminué plus que prévu. Sur les neuf derniers mois, elles ont reculé de plus de 6% et devraient encore baisser d'ici la fin de l'exercice financier 2024/2025 qui sera clos en août, selon les estimations de Barry Callebaut, qui a vu ses actions chuter de près de 13% après sa communication.  Le géant suisse du cacao dit subir les conséquences d'un environnement de marché « sans précédent » lié à la volatilité des prix du cacao et à la baisse de la demande. Cette chute de la consommation est directement liée à la hausse des cours mondiaux. Envolée du prix de la poudre de cacao Cette hausse du prix des fèves a fait bondir celui de la poudre de cacao qui se vend désormais à prix d'or : aux États-Unis, les prix ont bondi de 16% au cours de l'année écoulée, frôlant les 9 000 dollars la tonne et en Europe, la limite des 10 000 dollars la tonne a été franchie. Cette hausse s'explique en grande partie par l'envolée des prix du beurre de cacao, qui constitue environ 20% du poids d'une tablette : quand il est devenu trop cher, il a été en partie remplacé par des huiles végétales mais moins de beurre fabriqué c'est aussi moins de poudre, les deux étant, pour simplifier, produits au cours du même processus. Au premier trimestre, moins de fèves ont été broyées : la transformation de cacao a baissé de 3,7% en Europe, le plus grand marché mondial, soit la baisse la plus importante à cette période de l'année depuis 2017.

Ces records de prix confortent aussi ceux qui ont choisi d'investir dans les saveurs vanille ou caramel, deux goûts qui pourraient être de plus en plus répandus dans les préparations industrielles, à défaut de poudre de cacao abordable.

In this highly anticipated annual episode, Dr. G delivers the 2025 Heal Thy Self Cacao Product Review. After weeks of testing, lab document requests, and direct communication with brands, Dr. G exposes the shocking truth about your favorite cacao products. Not all cacao is created equal. Some brands are loaded with heavy metals like lead and cadmium. Others are contaminated with mold and mycotoxins. And some companies won't even respond to basic safety questions about what's actually in their products. Dr. G breaks down: Why even organic cacao can exceed safe heavy metal levels The brands that completely ignored transparency requests (red flag!) Which companies provided full certificates of analysis and passed with flying colors How mycotoxins from improperly stored cacao beans can cause liver toxicity and immune suppression The difference between fermented, raw, and roasted cacao and why it matters His complete transparency protocol: what questions every cacao company should answer. This isn't just about flavor; it's about your long-term health. Cacao is medicine, but sourcing matters. Transparency is the new baseline for quality. From the brands that made the top tier to the ones you should avoid completely, this episode will change how you choose your cacao forever. #cacao #chocolate #wellness ==== Thank You To Our Sponsors!

Who doesn't love cacao in some way, shape, or form? (Of course, dark chocolate is the best kind of chocolate in my not-so-humble opinion, but that's beside the point.) In this episode, I got to interview Marcos Patchett, a London herbalist with a very interesting backstory, who also happens to be an expert on cacao.Marcos shared so many fascinating aspects of this amazing plant, from its rich history in South America to its chemical constituents and the way it affects our bodies. He also dove into its many health benefits – so now you have an excuse to indulge in some high-quality chocolate!One traditional way to work with cacao is as a refreshing drink called pozol. Marcos shared a recipe for pozol that he learned in Mexico; you can download your beautifully illustrated copy here: https://bit.ly/4dged6iGood chocolate is much more than just a decadent treat!

La saison du cacao, - la petite saison- a débuté en Côte d'Ivoire. L'or brun du premier producteur mondial fait l'objet d'exportations massives, mais aussi… de contrebande. RFI s'est rendu dans 2 départements de l'extrême-ouest ivoirien. Par sa proximité avec la Guinée et le Libéria, la zone est considérée comme l'un des carrefours de l'exportation illégale. Selon les chiffres de l'agence Reuters, 50 000 tonnes de cacao se sont volatilisées au dernier trimestre 2024, au plus haut du cours mondial... Douanes renforcées, saisies, fonctionnaires arrêtés pour corruption présumée, la contrebande est un crime en Côte d'Ivoire. Mais bien des chemins permettent aux pisteurs d'échapper aux contrôles. «Sur les pistes du trafic de cacao», un Grand reportage de Benoît Almeras.

Ghanaian fashion innovator Kwaku Bediako is redefining luxury with sustainability at its heart. We step inside his world as he transforms second-hand garments into bold, high-fashion pieces, worn by global stars such as Stevie Wonder and Ian Wright.
