The agro-techniques for Vanilla

under poly house conditions is sparseand need to be developed for export.

With this in view present investigations

on its suitability to local agro-climatic

conditions were initiated under poly

house conditions.

Trials conducted during

2006-20071) Evaluation ofVanilla at different spacings

under polyhouse conditions for export

2) Vanilla cuttings were planted at a

spacing of 1x1m,1.5x1.5m,2x2m and

2.5x2.5 m.

Plant growth is satisfactory

Coconut De-husker

After harvesting, the succeeding operations are collectionof the nuts, ripening, and de-husking.

Coconuts in the husk are very bulky. They are dehuskedfirst before being transported in trucks or carts.

De-husking is a manual procedure. The principal part ofthe de-husker is a sharp-pointed shard of steel (a part ofthe native plow) positioned vertically with the point up and

the broader part firmly placed on the ground. The farmer-operator impales the coconut on the sharp point with astrong determined downward movement. A few impalingstrokes loosen the husk, making it come off


59/65

Since de-husked coconut is an important

article of commerce locally, huskingtherefore becomes mandatory. The coconut

husks are left with the farmer.

In the places where there is a coir fibre

industry, the husks may be sold to this

industry. Most often the husks are not sold

but are used as fuel for drying copra.


60/65

A pedal operated coconut de-husker wasdeveloped.

It is very easy to use.

Cost is Rs.500 only.

120-130 coconuts can be de-husked in an

hour.
