It is unique in the sense, that once itstarts bearing, the production phasecontinues uninterrupted throughout
its life of over 80 years. The coconutgrower is, thus, assured of a regularincome from plantation

Though, several states grow coconut inthe country, about 90% of its cultivation isshared by the southern states viz., Kerala,Karnataka, Tamilnadu and AndhraPradesh.
Kerala alone accounts for 60% of the total
area under coconut in India. The cultivation is spread over the entire
coastal belt of the country.
The crop is also grown in the states ofGoa, orissa, Maharashtra, Assam, westBengal Gujarat and Union territories.

The coconut based industries include
coir manufacture, copra processing,oil milling and distillery.
Export of coir goods alone earnRs.260 million foreign exchangeannually for the country.

The palm is monoecious andproduces normally one inflorescence
in the leaf axil, every month.
The inflorescence is enclosed in a
strong, though, double sheath calledspathe, which when fully grown splitslongitudinally and releases the
inflorescence Inflorescence has a main axis and 30 40 flower bearing spiklets.

Male flowers (250 350) appear atthe terminal portion of the spikelet,
while female flowers (buttons)appear at the basal portion of thespikelet. (2-5).
Male flower contains 6 statementsand the female flower has tricorpicovary.

Fruit is a large, one seeded drupe, roundor avoid in shape. The fruit has a smooth,thin green skin (exocarp) below whichthere is thick and fibrous husk
(mesocarp). Underneath this husk is thenut, having a hard outer layer (endocarpor shell), a thin testa (red or brown incolour) cohering to the endocarp and athick albuminous (white) endosperm
(meat or kernel), enclose a cavity filledwith water and an embryo at the tip of themeat.

They are two recognized varieties ofcoconut viz. The Talls and theDwarf.
The tall varieties are extensivelycultivated throughout the world andIndia also.
The cultivars of coconut are usuallyknown by the name of the placewhere they are largely grown.

Besides talls and dwarfs, coconuthybrids have been developed withdifferent combinations and are
known by the names of the parentalforms involved in their production.

They are hardy, reach a height of 30mt and live up to 80 years or morel.They have a stout trunk and a bole
and come to bearing late (6-8 yrs.)Fully developed leaves measure 6m.They are regular bearers and are
largely allogamous (cross-pollinated).

The copra, oil and fiber are of goodquality. The tall varieties largely
grown in India are the west coastTall (WCT) and East coast Tall a(ECT).
Others like Laccadivi ordinary,Laccadivi Micro, and Andamanordinary are largely grown in Unionterritories of Laksha Dweep andAndaman Nicobar Islands.

Dwarfs are characterized by their shortstature (5 m) and earliness in bearing(precocity) (3-3 years after planting).
They are short lived (40-50 yrs.)
Trunks are without bole. Fully developed leaf measures rarely 4m,
though prolific, often exhibit alternatebearing.
They are autogamous self-pollinated).

Nuts small, copra soft and leatherywith low oil content.
Dwarfs are mainly grown for tendernuts and as ornamental palms and
also for hybrid coconut production.
Dwarfs exhibit three nut colours
viz., green, yellow and orange.

The traditional method of cracking acoconut to separate its husk andshell is very primitive and inefficient,
even though today the Copraprocessing industry uses highlytechnical methods for other
operations.

In view of this fact, a simple tool hasbeen developed by Dr.S.EswaraReddy Senior Scientist (Hort) RARS
Anakapalli. It will de huskapproximately 100 to 200 coconutsper hour.

WORKING
The coconut is struck manuallyagainst the close-toothed blades.Next the pedal is pressed down.
the lever action snaps the coconuthusk in to pieces.
Two or three subsequent operations
are needed to separate the corecompletely.

However, regular plantings withdwarf types are not taken up inIndia. This may perhaps be due to
the fact that the dwarfs requirebetter growth conditions and bettercare for satisfactory performance,
low yields and poor quality of copra.
