Abstract
The objective of the IWBP was to develop practical and reliable economic methods of managing the disease in a number of cocoa growing environments. The review of the pathosystem in Chapter 2 showed that a large amount of research had already been completed before the IWBP was conceived. However, various aspects of the epidemiology of the disease remained poorly understood, meaning that management of the disease was not always based on an adequate knowledge of the pathosystem.
