The book serves as a comprehensive guide on the cultivation of cacao in the Philippines, focusing on the ideal conditions, methods of planting, care, and the economic prospects associated with cacao farming in the Archipelago. In "Cacao Culture in the Philippines," Lyon meticulously outlines the critical aspects of cacao cultivation, including the selection of sites and soils, the significance of climate, and various agricultural techniques necessary for successful cacao farming. He discusses prerequisites such as proper drainage, the benefits of specific cacao varieties like Criollo and Forastero, and effective pruning methods to maximize yield. Additionally, Lyon emphasizes the importance of managing pests and diseases that affect cacao trees and provides estimates on costs and revenues, making a case for cacao as a potentially profitable agricultural venture for planters in the region. The document serves not only as an agricultural manual but also as a thesis on the economic viability of cacao cultivation in the Philippine context.
