Cocoa, from the plot to the bean in the bag.

Record wet and dry beans by plot, cooperative and exporter, keep drying and grinding linked to their inputs, and hand each lot on with its certificates and the EUDR evidence your buyer asks for.

The challenge

Cocoa passes from many smallholders through cooperatives and buyers before it is ground.

  • Many small plots

    A cooperative buys from many farms, and the plots behind a bag are easy to lose.

  • Wet beans, dry beans, paste

    Each step changes the weight, and the inputs must stay on record.

  • One of the seven EUDR commodities

    Buyers in the EU ask for plot geolocation, the production period and the statement reference.

How A-REX handles it

Every step is a proposal a person approves.

  1. Register harvests by plot

    Each lot carries an origin reference of its farm or plot, never made from the plot's location.

  2. Receive and dry by lot

    Type the bags or kilograms you receive; drying makes new lots that keep their inputs.

  3. Grind and keep the inputs

    A control flags cocoa paste outside 70–92 % of the beans, or powder outside 35–60 %, and Humboldt explains it.

  4. Deliver with the evidence

    Each delivery carries the statement reference; an evidence check lists what is recorded and what is missing.

The features it uses

The platform's features as they are; your products, units and certificates are settings.

The evidence it produces

What a buyer, an auditor or a verifier you allow can read, with who declared each part.

Lineage
Each lot back to its inputs and their plots or farms, and forward to every holder.
Plots and production dates
Plots as points or polygons, and production dates set against the 31 December 2020 cut-off.
Mass balance
Processing output against input, and the findings where it does not add up.
The statement reference
The due diligence statement reference on each delivery under the EUDR.
EUDR evidence check
Requirement by requirement: evidence recorded, missing, not verifiable here, gaps first.
Signed shipment pack
A signed document, with GeoJSON for the plots, that anyone can verify without an account.

An evidence check lists what the records hold. It is not a legal opinion and never says that a lot complies.
