Developing High-Value Coconut By-Products




I know majority of our countrymen need not live in poverty.  I read an interesting article in the Manila Bulletin today, which could provide impetus to our farmers or at least those who have agricultural properties planted to the coconut.  The coconut tree, which is ubiquitous all over the country, actually has many by-products which can be a source of income for thos who produce them!

In the article, coconut coir and peat, both environmentally friendly products are needed by China since it's needed in making mattresses!  China needs around 100 million mattresses per year.  If we provide them the coconut coir, our countrymen can earn a lot from it!  Now, it's up to the government for now, to disseminate this information to the provinces which produce the most coconut by-products.  That way, development and progress can go to those places.
