Take a peek into Samsul Bahri’s journey in Cocoa Chronicles Ep. 4: From Odd Jobs to Own Land.
Before cocoa became a source of stability, Samsul relied on daily jobs to make a living.
Then, through the Cocoa Doctors programme, he began learning how to care for his cocoa trees, from planting and maintenance to grafting techniques that could help improve his farm over time.
The learning didn’t stop in his own field. Samsul began sharing what he learned with other farmers too. When fellow farmers needed help, he would visit their fields, look at the challenges they faced, and share what he had learned.
Slowly, the lessons from the cocoa farm started to shape more than just his farming practices.
Samsul began saving from his cocoa harvests. When his children needed school fees, he could harvest cocoa to help cover the costs. Little by little, he saved enough to buy the land he once didn’t own.
Today, he is no longer relying on odd jobs. He has his own land, his own farm, and a livelihood built one harvest at a time.✨
