Kerala’s Severe Coconut Crisis
This special report from Thiruvananthapuram highlights the serious coconut shortage afflicting Kerala, known as the "land of coconut trees."
The region faces a steep drop in coconut production, causing prices to soar: coconuts now sell for over 70 rupees per kilo and coconut oil approaches 410 rupees per kilogram.
“We now face shorter but heavier spells of rain, warmer nights and heatwaves. Added to this is the lack of care for existing coconut trees.”
Multiple factors drive the crisis, including climate change, pest infestations by the red palm weevil, a significant shortage of skilled labor, and the extensive conversion of coconut groves into real estate.
As households and restaurants reduce coconut consumption, the report raises concerns about Kerala potentially losing a vital part of its cultural identity.
