Phosphorus is the major element to which consistent responses are obtained. A dose ranging from 40-80 lb P2O5/acre appears desirable. Potassium fertilizer is valuable for unshaded high yielding varieties. Interaction effects of NP, PK and PMg vary from negative to positive, from site to site and from season to season. The economic use of fertilizers in cacao culture presupposes the adherence to proper agronomic practices. It is economic to apply fertilizer (triple superphosphate and sulphate of potash or muriate of potash) to farms which yield more than 500 lb dry cocoa per acre (560 kg cocoa/ha). It is further suggested that the "life" of the cacao farm could be prolonged by applying minimal dose of fertilizers to improve the soil productivity
