Indonesian Coconut Production

Workers separate coir from coconuts at a village in Pewunu, Sigi Regency, Central Sulawesi Province, Indonesia on September 3, 2020. Most farmers in the area sell their coconut in the form of raw fruit instead of processing it into copra. The price of raw coconut is higher and profitable than being sold in the form of copra, whose price has continued to decline since the beginning of the year. Indonesia is the largest coconut producer in the world. Almost all of the area is covered with coconut trees. The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) recorded that Indonesia's coconut production in 2017 reached 18.9 million tons, followed by the Philippines with 14 million tons, and India with 11.4 million tons.
