Summary, etc. Increase in farm gate prices of cacao in the Philippines, noncomitant to the increase in demand has been observed in the world market. However, a decreasing trend can be observed in the local demand and supply of cacao in the country with supply decreasing faster than the demand at an annual rate of 2.74% and 0.8% respectively. This situation puts pressure to the productivity, efficiency and profitability performance of cacao farmers in the country. The major producer of cacao in the Philippines is Davao region wherein most of the cacao farms are in Calinan, Davao City. Hence, this study examined the productivity, technical efficiency and profitability of 32 farmers in Subasta, Calinan, Davao City. The results were also used to determine the role and contribution of women, and the role and impact of the cooperative to cacao farming. Results revealed that female farmers were more technically efficient compared to male farmers. Cooperative membership was also identified to increase the productivity and profitability of cacao farmers. Among the inputs to production, land was the most responsive to output which means that cooperative members should consolidate their land areas and act as one farm to increase productivity. In the study area, the cooperative is considered as the best market option for farmers selling wet beans. Despite this positive impact, only 38% of the farmers were members of the cooperative. The following recommendations are advised to the cooperative: improvement in terms of its services and benefits offered to farmers; continue seeking assistance from the Local Government Units and donor organizations to improve their farm practices; and connecting with more local and international buyers to improve cacao price.
