The effects of The coconut market is classified into two categories: (1) domestic market and (2) international market (Australian Center for International Agricultural Research, Citation2017). WebCrop production depends on the availability of arable land and is affected in particular by yields, macroeconomic uncertainty, as well as consumption patterns; it also has a great incidence on agricultural commodities' prices.

Numerous food products are obtained from the coconuts (e.g., kernel/meat, coconut milk, coconut oil, andcoconut water/juice) and coconut sap (e.g., fresh sap, vinegar, coconut nectar/honey, and natural sap sugar). The first systematic classifications of varieties and forms identified two groups, tall and dwarf, as C. typica and C. nana. During this year, the estimated domestic consumption was 5,084 million nuts and 0.77 MMT for copra equivalents. The article on coconut farming is very useful. High density facilitates the efficient use of fertilizers, water, fungicides, weedicides, and pesticides.

Exports of coir pith from India has increased from less than Figure 5 shows the marketing channel of husked nuts (both young buko and old nuts). According to Aragon (Citation2000), copra processing is commonly done at the farm level. Due to the performance of coconut in the economy as the major source of income, it is considered as a predictor of the general economic activity of the country. Apply manures and fertilizers in circular basins of about 1.8 meters from the base of the palm, incorporate and irrigate. Coconut farmers are suffering due to low farm productivity and unstable and poorly developed markets for copra and coconut oil (Dy and Reyes, Citation2006; Israel and Briones, Citation2014). The production sector consists of smallholders who own an average farm size of 0.55 ha (Arancon, Citation1997).

Occasionally mealybug, rat, and slug also become troublesome. << Therefore, coconut oil is preferred over palm kernel oil due to better suitability of coconut oil in specific applications, in spite of its higher price. What prospects for research? The products produced from the meat are cake, fresh coconut, coconut oil, copra, and desiccated coconut. In most areas coir is a by-product of copra production, and Then, these are better than the original as they show early fruiting, have higher quantities of oil content, and an increased number of fruits per tree.

Supply chain management is a set of approaches utilized to efficiently integrate suppliers, manufacturers, warehouses, and stores so that merchandise is produced and distributed in right quantities, to the right locations, and at the right time, in order to minimize system-wide costs while satisfying service-level requirements (Lambert and Cooper, Citation2000). There is no available irrigation system in coconut producing areas. In the case of young trees, the nutrient dose must be given at the rate of 1/4, From the 5th year onwards, apply about 50 kg of FYM or compost or green manure. Coconut trees are productive throughout the year. While there are some large plantations with integrated operations, copra remains primarily a smallholder crop.
