Africa is the heaven of cocoa where has hundreds of thousands children have to work in cocoa farms with extremely harsh life conditions for meeting the demand of chocolate in the world. The children who are around 10-14 years old must give up their study to pluck cocoa. Normally, they have work continuously 12 hours/day under the blazing sun of Africa for receiving approximately USD 3. Even some haven’t been paid salary because of the greed of their boss. Moreover, touching directly with pesticides and injuries by sharp knifes make a lot of children slow death.
The poor of African and the higher demand of chocolate support for their parents have to take the children out of the school to work at cocoa farms.
