Y02{a08&a/ The foreign markets are the USA, Europe, theUSSR, China, and Japan. In most areas coir is a by-product of copra production, and Cashew Nut shell liquids are also a vital part of various speciality chemicals. /Pages 237 0 R Figure 4 illustrates the market channel of copra. <> The 3rd largest producer of Coconut in the world is India. Then, to increase organic matter use cover crops or green manure. Important quality parameters for commercial grades of refined coconut oil (RCNO) and virgin coconut oil (VCNO) are presented in the following table , TABLE 1: QUALITY PARAMETERS FOR REFINED AND VIRGIN COCONUT OIL, [Note: Induction period indicates oxidative stability of the oil, which provides the likely oil shelf life.]. 0000009604 00000 n The tall varieties are predominantly cross-pollinated and out-breeding and the dwarf varieties arehighly self-pollinated and in-breeding. Coir pith is also supplied from other production areas (e.g. Whether it's Globally, India ranks third in coconut and coconut oil production. The products produced from the meat are cake, fresh coconut, coconut oil, copra, and desiccated coconut. You have entered an incorrect email address! The nuts produced by the farmers are sold to the traders in copra form. Yield is an indicator of productivity derived by dividing total production by the area harvested for temporary crops or by the total bearing trees among permanent crops. Several specialty chemicals are derived from coconut oil. Second, policies and interventions should be fine-tuned to the demands of the industry so that producers and manufacturers are able to take fair advantage of the opportunities and produce the volume and quality required by the domestic and international markets. TABLE 4: GLOBAL SUPPLY AND DISTRIBUTION OF COCONUT OIL (million MT). The Coconut grower wishing to maximize pasture growth as well as yields of copra must use the least number of palms per hectare required to realize this goal. Copra (or khobara) is the dried meat or kernel of the coconut, which is the fruit of the coconut palm (Cocos nucifera). Coconut oil is extracted from copra, making it an important agricultural commodity for many coconut-producing countries. It also yields de-fatted coconut cake after oil extraction, which is mainly used as feed for livestock. The farmers lack entrepreneurial and technical skills in managing the coconut farms. for peat moss in horticultural substrate cultivation. However, the share of coconut in agriculture production is 7%. The wholesalers and retailers perform the wholesaling and retailing functions.

These are normally planted 810 m apart and bear fruits for about 46years. Approximately 36% of the domestic market share of copra is processed into coconut oil and other secondary processed products (Figure 2). This constitutes billions of coconuts which was more than that of India which used to rank next to Indonesia and the Philippines. They remain poor among all other actors in the supply chain. The farmer depends on the price dictated by the traders. Production of palm kernel oil has increased consistently over the last few decades along with the rise in palm oil production. The palm prefers less diurnal variation between day and night but does not tolerate extreme temperatures. Generally, high density planting requires agriculture machinery from the initial stage to the final harvesting stage. Refined, bleached, deodorized (RBD) oil, Volume and value (000 MT, FOB in million US$). /Type /Page The data are also consistent with Clarete and Roumasset (Citation1983) that over the period 19611982, approximately 84% are exported to foreign markets and the remaining 16% for the domestic market. Coconut loses some fruits and flowers but will bounce back after a year or two after the landfall of a typhoon. The wholesalers of coconut and coconut by-products as well as of grains dominated the small wholesalers. endobj >> Self-pollination in the dwarf palm results from selection under cultivation and is easily cross-pollinated, especially when surrounded by tall palms (Adkins et al., Citation2011). Coconut palm trees are cultivated for producing coconuts on commercial scale. CNO is a lauric oil (about 50% lauric acid) similar in composition to palm kernel and babassu oils. Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, and Andhra Pradesh are parts that have lower rainfall and plant their Coconuts around June / July. The bulk of copra in the majority of the regions is sold to community buyers before the copra reaches the mills. There are instances where some middlemen act as intermediaries between the farmer and processor. For Coconut cultivation, soil with a minimum depth of about 1.2 meters and fairly good water holding capacity is preferred. Coconut tree thrives in sandy soil. This yields over 14 billion nuts annually and employing 25 million Filipinos within the industry. products (fibre, yarn, door mats, matting, runners and carpets). It is suitable in soils with various primary macronutrient contents such as nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorus; secondary macronutrients, including sulfur, calcium, and magnesium; and the micronutrients of boron and chlorine (Kerela Agricultural university Citation2011; Prades et al., Citation2016). good market perspectives if they can be produced at an economically competitive The oxidative stability or shelf life as well as health benefits of virgin coconut oil are better than that of refined coconut oil; mainly due to its higher contents of tocopherols, polyphenols and other bio-active compounds. 250 0 obj Your email address will not be published.

In the international market, the industry has a flourishing, stable, and growing export and domestic markets but hindered by a poor global image of supply reliability. Coconut is one of the important crops in the country. Coconut is very important for the Philippine economy. The coconut production area constitutes 27.19% of the total land area for the cropsubsector. TABLE 2: COPRA PRODUCTION WORLD AND SOUTH EAST ASIA, [Source Foreign Agricultural Service / USDA]. Other key problems confronting the coconut industry include senility of coconut trees; widespread use of poor or low-yielding coconut varieties due to lack of quality coconut seedlings; poor agronomic or farm management practices; unabated cutting of coconut trees in view of the good market for coco lumber; poor soil nutrition; incidence of pests and diseases; natural calamities; land conversion of coconut lands; lack of sustained and adequate resources for infrastructure support, research and extension services on value addition, technical skills, and entrepreneurial skills development of small coconut farmers;and land tenure-related problems (Aragon, Citation2000; Magat, Citation2000; Manicad, Citation1995; Peace and Equity Foundation, Citation2016; PCA, Citation1995).
