We analyse the growth trends in coconut cultivation using appropriate growth equations to estimate the growth rates and instabilities in growth trends. Besides, we use decomposition analysis to find the role of area, price, yield and crop mix effects on coconut production. The results reveal that ...

In India, the coconut cultivation industry directly or indirectly employs approximately 12 million people and contributes 1.28 billion USD to GDP (Thomas 2013). Coconut is, however, attacked by more than 800 species of pests. In India and Sri Lanka, one of the major pests is the coconut leaf...
In the past, Malaysia’s coconut sector faced several difficulties and upheavals related to the economy. However, as a result of the EU’s decision to oppose the cultivation of palm oil due to worries about forest clearing and environmental damage, the business has recently demonstrated enormous...
In alignment with this perspective, the employed methodology enabled participants to conceptualize business ventures and discern and rank solutions rooted in the utilization of by-products derived from a comprehension of coconut cultivation as an agroecosys- tem. Furthermore, it facilitated the ...
