Witches' Broom, The Cocoa Killer Witches' Broom, The Cocoa Killer

Director: Bunny Dexter

Year: 2001

Agricultural Terrorism. Bad news from the rain forest for chocolate addicts. Witches' Broom, Crinipellis perniciosa, the incurable fungal disease that leaves dying cocoa plants looking like a witch's broom, spread by persons unknown for reasons unknown, perhaps a grudge or wish for revenge, has decimated the groves of Bahia, Brazil. Evidence suggests there has been deliberate agricultural sabotage. Brazil, formerly one of the largest exporters of cocoa, no longer has any cocoa to spare. But there is hope. Scientists may have found a solution to the incurable disease, witches' broom. They have discovered a method of grafting and cloning resistant trees. This means diseased groves can be gradually replaced. But is it too late?
