The coconut palm (Cocos nucifera) nick-named as Kalpa vriksha, is a multipurpose palm grown widely in humid tropics, providing nutritious food and refreshing drink, oil for edible and non-edible uses, fibre, shell for fuel and industrial uses, timber and a variety of miscellaneous products for domestic and industrial uses. Its crop is of greater significance in generating employment, alleviating poverty and enhancing income to rural areas. It provides livelihood for 10 million people, contributing 6 per cent to the national vegetable oil pool. Not Available |
