Tree crops are the predominant agricultural produce from Ondo State but their
production quantity over years vary from one crop to the other. Annual production of
four important perennial cash crops (cocoa, rubber, palm kernel and cashew) were
examined. This paper aim at examine the annual variation in term of percentage of
production over twelve (12) years of observation. Available data were subjected to
descriptive statistical analysis. Results indicated that cocoa account for 80.69%, palm
kernel 15.61%, rubber 2.90% and cashew 0.79% of tree crops production in the State.
However, the rate of appreciation were in order of cashew (40.99%), cocoa (6.44%),
palm kernel (5.9%) and rubber (-1.26%) over the years of consideration. There is need to
pay absolute attention to those crops that have low and negative rate of appreciation to
avoid their extinction to save some companies that depend on them for their local
production in the later years
