First, to maximize productivity in the coconut industry, collaboration must be fostered among the actors of the coconut supply chain. Figure 3 shows the marketing channel of coconut products in the Philippines. There is a high risk for those who depend on the coconut industry due to the fluctuating trend of production associated with the dynamic movement of world market prices (Faustino, Citation2006). Copra, the dried meat, is also consumed in food products and is the main source of coconut oil. enterprises and the support of public research institutions is required for The kernel (copra, coco-water and shell) comprises 65 per cent of total high potash content. The price margins influence the decisions of private enterprises and government and the government regulations on agricultural distribution services (Timmer, Citation1987). These prices are for copra supplied from Philippines and Indonesia on CIF Northwest (NW) Europe (at Rotterdam) basis. This paper provides an overview of the coconut supply chain in the Philippines including coconut production, export markets, and supply chain structure, as well as analysis of constraints to increased agricultural production. 262 0 R /F9 263 0 R /F10 264 0 R /F11 265 0 R /F12 266 0 R /SH1 267 0 R >> This is equivalent to an annual 2.8 tons of copra per ha. Within this block, the selected mother palms should have at least 40-50 full-sized nuts, anytime of the year under ordinary farm conditions (Magat, 1999). Coconuts have no dormancy period between seed nut harvesting and germination. Yield varies from Of the total exports of the same year, agriculture contributed 9% from the value of total agricultural exports amounting to US$5,280 million Free On Board (FOB). 0000009842 00000 n Seed nuts are soaked for 24 to 36 hours before sowing. charcoal from the coconut shell provides for an increasingly important export The farmer produces and processes the nuts into copra which he sells to the town trader at quoted price per kg. Coconut trees are productive throughout the year. Also, unless ground conditions are good, many nuts may not be found. tonnes2.

Seed germination is expected within 60 to 130 days after sowing for tall plant varieties and within 30 to 95 days for dwarf plant varieties. The selection and inclusion of crop components are influenced by the climate and by household preferences, and dietary habits. stream According to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (2001), the farm gate price is the price of the product available at the farm, excluding any separately billed transport or delivery charge. The seed nut is planted horizontally with wide segments at the top or vertically with the stalk end facing outward. g/nut) Leaf scars should be closely spaced and the trunk of the tree must be stout. Parent Also, the harvesting frequency depends on the palms yield. The coconut production area constitutes 27.19% of the total land area for the cropsubsector. /O 251 WebThe Agricultural Production domain covers: Quantity produced, Producer price, Value at farmgate, Area harvested, Yield per hectare.
