The Peruvian cocoa was recognized and awarded by the International Cocoa Awards (I.C.A), as "cocoa of excellence", for its quality (flavor and aroma). In the year 2017, a production of 44.2 million tons was achieved, due to the increase in the areas planted (MINAGRI., 2016). Currently, Peru is located in the 9th place of importance in the world with 2% of world production, surpassed by Cameroon, Brazil, among other Asian and African countries. The following study was conducted at the Institute of Tropical Crops (I.C.T), Banda de Shilcayo. The objective was to determine the effect of the application of calcium amendments (Dolomite and Calcium Hydroxide), organic amendments (Island Guano, Gallinaza and Compost) on the absorption of cadmium in cocoa seedlings. The design used was split plots with 5 repetitions. Height, stem diameter, dry matter of the aerial part, roots, cadmium content, aerial part and radicular of the seedlings were evaluated. The best results in biometric parameters were obtained with guano island treatment. All the organic amendments reduced the content of cadmium, in stems, leaves and roots; the chicken manure treatment showed significant differences with respect to the control, reducing the cadmium content by 81.48 %. The accumulation of cadmium was higher in the roots than in the aerial part.
