Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the coconut sector's growth performance and instability in the world context. Since Indonesia, Philippines and India are the world's biggest producer of coconuts which accounted for 75 per cent of overall production in the world and contribute around 80 percent of the total land for coconut farming. Area, production, and yield of coconut were collected from Faostat and ICC websites based on secondary data from 1990-91 to 2020-21. The study period was divided into period I (1990-91 to 2005-06) and period II (2006-07 to 2020-21). The study examines growth patterns using the compound growth rate, measures instability using the Coppock’s instability index, and investigates the role of area and yield on production using decomposition analysis. The results revealed that growth rate of area was positive for Indonesia, Philippines and Indonesia for all the period. But production trend was negative in respective countries due to yield trend shows negative growth on period II. Similar results were found from instability index and decomposition analysis. This may due to poor management practices, severe diseases and pests of the plantations. Hence, greater attention needs to be given to the states where to attract and encourage many new farmers into coconut cultivation by accessing modern technology, quality plantations, credit facilities by support of government.
