Businesses like coco peat and coir is agro based and highly regional in countries like India and Srilanka.

In Asia, Using Coir Was An Age Old Practice

Age old practice for today and tomorrow – use of coir for agriculture in Asia

Tropical countries have a blessing, Coconut. Not only to consume, but a tree where the whole part of the tree was used for one purpose or the other. Long before inorganic interventions were in place, natural farming advocated products and by-products that were available in nature as resources for cultivation.

In hot tropics, availability of water is a challenge and for crops like rice, water retention of soil decides the yield. With high temperatures during the day, water was always inadequate. Coir was the natural choice, the pith could hold as much of 10 times its weight, which improved water retention at the roots drastically. Since it is organic and natural, there is no question of any implications or any other depletion in soil quality, instead it decomposes and improves aeration, nutrition and soil quality.

Despite advancements in scientific agricultural practices, coir is still irreplaceable by any other product. Coir is nature given, completely organic, time tested age old practice that is still in vogue.

Coconut Farmers in Tamilnadu, Kerala and Karnataka Face Labour Shortage

Hit by steep fall in prices and mounting cost of cultivation along with shortage of labour, the once prosperous coconut farmers in these three regions are looking for Government intervention to help them overcome the the current crisis.

Labour shortages could provide a challenging start to the India's coconut season.

The tendency among the youth to switch over to lucrative Urban jobs has only aggravated the crisis further, he said. Over 5,000 migrant labourers are in farmlands of Kerala, Tamilnadu and Karnataka to work over the course of the season.

However experts said growers across these three states would still have a battle on their hands to get their coconuts off the tree and store it in optimal condition for better prices.

“Tamilnadu growing regions are very challenged, and in some parts of Kerala it is difficult to find workers as well because there's just not the big urban environment around which you can bring those workers from,” notes, experts. All dependent industries like the Coconut Oil, Coir Exports, Coco Peat Exports For Horticulture are also hit due the crisis.

“The tough front end is getting the coconuts off the tree."
