CCRP

GEN’L FLAVOR: Earthen with a Fruit spot

A clonal series numbering 1 thru 10 standing for Cadbury Cocao Research Project because that British chocolate company initiated breeding research on it at India’s Kerala Agricultural University starting in 1979. Based on Amazonian genotypes from Malaysia, CCRP has been cloned for high productivity & disease resistance against Black Pod & Vascular Streak Dieback, the twin scourges of cacáo trees in Oceania.

It is the prime seedling supplied to Indian growers.
