It's also unique, it turns out that to get a kopyor coconut, the seeds are actually selected from normal coconuts. For this seedling process, first we peel the coconut, to make it easier for the shoots to grow.
Secondly, to absorb or store water from the watering.
Seedling kopyor coconuts is indeed not as easy as seedling other plants. The coconuts that will be used as seeds should not be careless, there are specific criteria. The coconuts must be old, this can be marked by the weight of the seeds themselves, which must be light. Then the color of the coconut skin must be slightly brownish and blackish.
The coconuts for seeds are left for two weeks, then they are planted. The planting medium for the seedling cultivation process is loosened first by being given fertilizer. Cultivating kopyor coconuts is indeed more profitable for farmers in terms of production results. However, the lack of equipment and lack of knowledge make farmers quite satisfied with the traditional cultivation of kopyor coconuts.
Yes, the distribution of kopyor coconut seeds in Indonesia cannot be careless. Seedlings to be sold must be accompanied by an official certificate from the Plantation Service Seed Center Production Center. This regulation is established to prevent the illegal distribution of kopyor seedlings. To obtain a certificate, kopyor farmers must register their parent kopyor coconuts with the relevant service.
At the age of five years, kopyor coconuts have started to produce. One tree trunk can produce up to 25 years. After that, kopyor coconuts must be rejuvenated or replanted. Farming kopyor for our village community is not just a livelihood for our villagers. Farming kopyor coconuts can improve the family economy.
The characteristics of kopyor coconut and non-kopyor coconut are kopyor, the skin must be hairy, the skin comes out, if it is not kopyor, it is firmer.
If kopyor coconut is like an old person, it is wrinkled. If you tap it, it will be soft, if not kopyor, it is hard.
Well, this kopyor coconut is softer and thicker in texture, compared to ordinary coconut meat. The taste of the water and fruit is also very different from ordinary coconuts.
