Tender coconut water, known as Neera, has emerged as an important source of living bread for coconut growers and about ten million families are cultivating coconut in India. Almost 1800 lakh coconut palm population exist in Kerala and if a minimum of 1% of this coconut trees are used for Neera tapping there will be 18 lakhs trees for tapping. A Neera tapper can ideally tap around 15-20 palms each day and the employment potential is expected for this purpose is one lakh. This may increase to 10 lakhs if the Neera tapping is increased to 10%. If farmers are allowed to tap Neera and to produce the value added products, it will help the farmers to generate a high daily return to the Neera tapper as well as to the coconut growers. The study includes a detailed analysis about the Neera and its effect on the coconut farmers and a brief discussion about the Neera and its value added products and its effect on the coconut farmers.
