Oasis Foundation implemented a productivity enhancement programme in coconut gardens through integrated approaches, funded by the Coconut Development Board.
The project combined soil health improvement, non-chemical pest management and direct input support to growers, delivered through demonstrations so that practices could be seen and repeated by farmers in their own gardens.
Activities
- Meetings with the Coconut Development Committee to plan and review the work with growers.
- Distribution of inputs to participating farmers.
- Green manuring with sun hemp to build soil fertility and organic matter.
- Demonstration of manure application in the gardens.
- Demonstration and installation of pheromone traps for pest management.
