Fredy’s Plantation is an innovative agricultural initiative in Ivory Coast, dedicated to sustainable cocoa production and agroforestry. Founded by Fredy Hiestand, the project focuses on restoring degraded land through environmentally friendly cultivation methods while ensuring long-term economic viability.
With a commitment to biodiversity, soil regeneration, and responsible farming, Fredy’s Plantation integrates Dynamic Agroforestry (DAF) principles to create resilient and diverse farming systems. By combining cocoa with various complementary crops such as fruit trees, timber species, and oil palms, the initiative enhances soil fertility, carbon sequestration, and ecosystem stability.
Ecotop supports Fredy’s Plantation by providing expertise in agroforestry design, implementation, and sustainable land management. Through this partnership, the plantation serves as a model for ecologically and economically sound agriculture, demonstrating how innovative farming techniques can contribute to a more sustainable cocoa sector in Ivory Coast.
