Abstract

Coconut (Cocos nucifera L.) is by far the most extensively cultivated plantation crop in Sri Lanka. It is essentially a small holder crop comprising about 86% of small. holdings and homesteads and the balance belonging to the estate sector. The growth habit of the palm and its canopy structure requires a wide, spacing between palms, which permits abundant sunlight to the understory. As a result, the unutilised space beneath the plantation becomes invaded by a wide range of perennial and annual weed species. Such weeds invariably compete with coconut for soil moisture and nutrients, affecting its growth and yield and obstructing routine estate practices. Management of the understory weed growth is, therefore, considered an essential step in maintaining the plantation. In fact, the cost of weeding accounts for a substantial proportion of the total recurrent expenditure for maintenance.

Abstract

Coconut oil which forms about 4.9 per cent of the world production of oils and fats, assumes much importance among the common vegetable oils in the world. But the alleged atherogenicity of coconut oibdue to its highly saturated nature hinders coconut oil from having a top position in the world market as an edible oil. The recent classification of oils based on the chain length of fatty auds, as MCT and LCT, reveals the neutral effect of coconut oil, which is also supprted by epidemiological observations. Here the possibilities of labelling cocbout oil as an energy giving non‑fattening edible oil is discussed, to dispel the prevailing misconceptions.

Abstract

The world market for desiccated coconut (DC) is examined within a supply and demand framework. Production and marketing arrange­ments within DC producing countries are analysed, in addition to consumption trends in the major DC markets of Europe and North America. The prospects for expanding the DC market are then considered, and some potential is found in amas such as: research and development, product promotion and‑markethig strategy.

Abstract

The beneficial residual effects of the previous regular applications of sodium chloride fertilizers on mature coconuts were evaluated in a long‑term experiment conducted in an inland Tugbok soil (typic Tropudalfs) of Davao, Mindanao (Philippilines). Sodium chloride (common salt) at increpasing rates of 0.0, 0.88, 1.76, 3.52. and 7.04 kg/tree per tree was tested., At higher rates of NaCl fertilizer (1.76‑7.04 kg/tree per year) applied regularly for 5 years, the residual respofise in terms of nuts and copra yield tended to, occur for a longer period of 5 years. Except soil Na, soil. properties were not significantly affected by NaCl application. Implications of the findings are discussed in relation to sound coconut crop agronomy and soil management.

Abstract

Uptake, translocation and persistance of carbendazim in coconut in relation to control of stem bleeding caused by Thielaviopsis paradoxa was studied. The fungicide when applied through a single root @ 10g Bavistin/palm, was detected up to 2m height in the trunk of treged palms on feeding side, whereas no fungicide was detected from remaining three sides. In the former case, the furigicide accumulated in sufficient concentrations to arrest the internal decay for six months. The residues detected in nut water from nuts of different maturity from treated adult palms (20 ‑ 25 yrs.) were within safe limits.

Abstract

Trichoderma harzianum multiplied in farm yard manure and applied with neem cake to coconut palm affected by basal stem rot disease reduced the severity of the disease. T harzianum applied in coconut basins survived for more than one year, though the population gradually declined after four months. Application of Azotobacter or phosphobacterium (200 g peat based inoculurn) to basal stern rot disease affected coconut gave lesser increase in disease index than control and increased the nut yield. Tapping for neera production in mild and moderately diseased palms showed lesser disease index than untapped palms of corresponding disease severity.

Abstract

The biology and mass rearing of Eucanthecona furcellata Wolf, a polyphagous predator, was studied under laboratory conditions. The predator has a total life cycle (egg to adult) of 46.25 days. The egg hatched 6 days after laying. The nymphs undergo seven instars with each stage ranging from 2.0 ‑ 2.35 days. Mass‑rearing techniques, effect of field releases and other ecological factors on pest population as well as other biological informations are also described.

Abstract

Biomass production, nitrogen yield and nodulation by ten species of green manure legumes were compared in coconut basins in a root (wilt) affected garden under laterite soil type. Pueraria phaseoloides, Calopogonium mucunoides and Mimosa invisa were superior to others and yielded 28.45, 27.21 and 24.97 kg of biomass and 196.2, 186.5 and 187.6 g of nitrogen basin-1, respectively. The performance of Mucuna bracteata Crotalaria juncea and Macroptilium atropurpureum were also better with a biomass production of 16‑21 Kg basin-1 and nitrogen yield of 108‑140 g basin-1. Incorporation of green manures obtained from C. mucunoides, P. phaseoloides and M. invisa resulted in an increase in the level of major nutrients viz. N, P and K in coconut basin soils. Mineralisation of carbon was also greater in green manured coconut basin soils when compared to that in control. The increase in nutrient levels and mineralisation of carbon was more in treated basins at 30 days of incorporation of green manures when compared to the levels before the harvest of the legumes and at 60 days of incorporation.

Abstract

Coconut farmers in the Philippines use different types of copra dryer in copra processing. Copra quality and income are very much affected by the type of dryer used. In the country, there are indirect, direct, and semi‑direct type dryers. The common types of dryer used by the coconut farmers especially in the Visayas are direct and semi‑direct ones. There is high probability of the direct dryer together with the copra in getting burned because the firing place is directly under the drying platform where the coconut meat is placed. Especially if the meat is reaching 10% or lower moisture content where oil is coming out and the fire is immediately under it. Semi‑direct type dryer is quite comfortable to use having the less probability of burning the copra and the dryer because the firing place is away from the drying platform. The firing place is only linked to the drying platform by a tunnel.

Abstract

Severe nitrogen‑deficiency in unfertilized plots resulted in low bearing percentage (19.62%) of the palms. Highest bearing percentage of 68.82% was observed on palms applied with 1.5 kg ammonium sulfate per palm per year. Application of 2 kg ammonium sulfate/palm/year resulted in most number of harvested nuts. The yields of palms applied with 1.5 kg ammonium sulfate or 0.66 kg/urea/palm/year were, however, not statistically different from the former. Similar trends in fresh meat and copra yields were observed. Copra yields were significantly higher in plots applied with inorganic N fertilizers.
