How to make massive money from coco plantations:
There are certain factors that you will consider before setting up coco plantation and make massive money from it.

Soil condition and property:
You need to also consider the soil condition and property. Cocoa grows better on a soil containing coarse particles and with a reasonable quantity of nutrients to a depth of 1.5m to allow the development of a good root system.
Cocoa soil should have both water retention properties and a good drainage due to it sensitivity to lack of water.

Climatic factors:
rainfall, temperature and an evergreen forest are very important as cocoa is produced in countries with a belt between 10 degree north and 10 degree south of the equator where the climate is appropriate for growing cocoa trees.
cocoa plants respond well to relatively high temperature

Setting up a cocoa farm:
large expanse forest land with appropriate weather and suitable rainfall because the tress need temperatures between 21-23 degree Celsius and with a fairly rainfall of 1000-2500mm per year and the land you intend to use for cocoa farming must be covered by rain forest canopy.

Why is cocoa such an important and lucrative crop?
A single cocoa tree produces between 20 and 30 pods, which are the oval-shaped yellow/orange things you see hanging on the tree trunk in the picture to your right.

Each pod contains about 20 to 50 seeds, known as cocoa beans. These beans are the goldmine of the cocoa plant because they are processed into cocoa liquor, cocoa butter, cocoa powder, and most popularly, chocolate!
After the pods ripen, they are harvested and cut open to extract the valuable cocoa beans. Surprisingly, the beans usually have a strong bitter taste.
