Kerala which is believed to have got its name from Kera meaning coconut, is truly the
and of coconuts. The tree dominates the entire state and coconuts are a linchpin in the rural
mamy of Kerala. About 60 per cent of India's coconut produce comes from Kerala
To the people of Kerala, the caconut palm is no ordinary tree : ut is the Kaipa
she - the Tree of Wish Fulfilment or the Tree at Heaven. Coconut growers refer to tas
me nuts that don't deceive' and make a good living from them. A tree can produce 60 10 70
nuts per year
There is a proverb in Malayalam which says that no part of the coconut palm is
sasted. The wood of the trunk is used as building material as well as for making furniture. The
leaves help to thatch houses; the kernel is used as ingredient in food, from the dried kemel
(copra) coconut oil is extracted, the shells serve as fuel; the sap provides toddy and brown
sugar. The coconut water is a most refreshing and unadulterated drink, the husks of the nuts
are processed into fibre for the manufacture of coir, rope and mats. Kerala's two major
Industries-coconut oil and colr-making-depend entirely on the cultivation of the coconut palm

Explanation:

By the late 1970s it accounted for some 68% of total production in India and at one stage some 899,198 hectares were reportedly under cultivation.[1] Today Kerala produces roughly 45% of India's coconuts, with some 92% of total production lying in the southern Indian states and Kerala's neighbours. The Coconut Development Board which plays an important role in the development of coconut production in India has its headquarters in Kochi, Kerala.[2] One problem which poses a major threat to production in Kerala is Root wilt disease.[3]
