Copra, the smoked white meat of coconut. It is a much sought-after Rohstaff such as chemistry, the cosmetics industry and for the production of oil.

Those who know my wife now has to know that they come up with new business ideas. So again, as we are the first time on Sybuyan were.

Her family has increased in the mountains on the land outweigh the coconut palms grow. The yield of these trees, the coconuts were used as pig feed and the remainder unused fell from the trees and it grew more and more palm up. 



The idea of my wife was out of the coconuts and copra built it into Manila Market. She had quickly found and Manila and interested people in the mountains just to the living, so what the jungle being made, were enough on the spot. Only cash, they had no idea what too? So we started the company copra. 



Quick was a hut built in the lower part of a fire was set. An intermediate floor was installed, which includes the weight of the weight of the Rohwahre endured, the smoke and the heat but the fire can culvert. The whole thing got a roof from the leaves of the coconut palms and the foundation was ready for production. 



Coconuts were harvested and first of all by the thick outer shell separated. Also I have excellent views of this work is trying, but it is a dis ..... Work. I then but the locals left, the better it was practiced. 




After this work you have to do the meat from the hard shell to solve. always made the same number of people. 



You provide the meat get out at our cottage and are paid according kilo. 



When about five bags were delivered, the entire floor in the dry and a fire breaks out in the lower part. How long this lasts dryproces, this is a matter of experience and will be reviewed again and again, until then the message comes, the copra is ready to outsource. 



The finished product is then packed in bags 



Copra 



Now we are currently shipping monthly approximately 10 to 15 bags a 50 kg copra to Manila. The demand is increasing but we are forced coconuts to buy from other to be able to increase production.

As it is he who is Copraprice in recent times fallen world and the profit melts away. But what should the people have work and money, which they would otherwise in the jungles of Sibuyan could not earn.


You might wonder what happened to the coconut milk. Quite simply, the same as before. You make it coconut wine (tuba) her as ever.
