Datasets for correlation dynamics of cocoa production in South Western Nigeria.

ABSTRACT: In the Nigeria economy, cocoa production has been of great importance. This buttresses the fact that cocoa as a product is the leading agricultural export of Nigeria, leaving the country currently as the world fourth largest producer of cocoa, after Ivory Coast, Indonesia and Ghana and the third largest exporter, after Ivory Coast and Ghana.
