This publication presents a comprehensive report on the global coconut industry, focusing on its production, trade, and economic aspects.

The publication is divided into several sections: part one discusses the production and trade of coconut products, including historical trends and projections for future growth. Part two provides an economic analysis of coconut farming, including production costs and farm sizes. Part three presents international trade data on the exports and imports of coconut products, with a focus on key markets.
