    Constraints in adoption of integrated management for root (wilt) disease affected coconut areas - An analysis of Alleppey district
    (2012) Anitha Kumari, P.; Muralidharan, K.; Kalavathi, S.; Remabai, S.
    Analysis of the constraints faced by the farming community in root (wilt) affected area was done during 2010-2011 at Alleppey district, Kerala, India. It was found that irrespective of the holding size only 50 percent of the coconut trees were in bearing stage whereas around one third were seedlings and one fifth pre bearing stage. Adoption of recommended practices were statistically significant with the area under coconut cultivation. The farmers identified 30 major constraints which were categorized as technical, input, economic, social and biophysical constraints in order of importance. Participation of the coconut farmers in meetings related to farming was only 18.9 percent and participation in training programmes was meager and only 10 percent of the sample respondents were members in any farmer groups. The results indicated need for coconut farmers' clusters/ societies for improving technology adoption in community basis.

    Trends In Coconut Area And Production In India
    (1984) Prafulla K. Das; Vijayakumar, K.; Balakrishnan, P.; Damodaran, V.K.; Remabai, S.; Amarnath, C.H.
    Between 1950-51 and 1980-81 though the area planted under coconut has been quite noticeable, the production growth rate has always lagged behind the planting rate, suggesting that productivity is declining. During the 1970s, the compound growth rate of coconut yield for Kerala was (-) 2.0 per cent/annum, while the corresponding rates for the other major producing states, namely Tamil Nadu and Karnataka were 1.0 per cent and 0.17 per cent respectively. Largely influenced by Kerala, the trend in all-India productivity for the period under reference was (-) 0.9 per cent/annum. We should plan for a growth rate of 7.0 per cent to bridge the supply gap.
