Coconut fruit, typically from mature tall trees, can be harvested using one of the following methods:
-
Ladder or Climbing Device: Utilize a ladder or other climbing device to reach the coconuts on the tree. This method requires stability and caution to ensure safety.
-
Skilled Climbers: Employ experienced climbers who can ascend the trees and harvest the coconuts. These individuals possess the necessary skills and techniques for safe and efficient harvesting.
-
Long Pole with a Sharp Blade: Attach a sharp blade to a long pole, enabling you to cut the coconuts from the ground. This method is often used for trees that are difficult to climb.
Generally, after being cut or detached, the coconuts are allowed to drop to the ground. After the entire tree has been harvested, the fallen coconuts are then gathered for processing or sale.
