Regenerative Integrity

Biodiversity

Banana, pineapple, ginger, cinnamon and other inter crops grown between coconut trees to increase biodiversity, reduce pest pressure, and promote sequestration of CO₂ into the soil.

Because crops are planted more densely, also generates additional income per acre for farmers.

Bee keeping to encourage pollination of main and inter crops and to support natural habitats.

Replanting

Productive seedlings placed in between existing trees to receive sufficient sunlight.

Once seedlings are old enough to produce nuts, the neighbouring ageing trees are removed.

Soil Fertility

Produced and supplied >33 million kg of compost to our farmers at subsidized prices, spending over $450,000.

With our support, some farmers now produce their own compost on-site.

Over half of our farmers allow cattle to graze on their coconut estates—helping to convert weeds and grass into manure, stimulate growth of plant roots, and sequestration of CO₂ into biomass.

Soil/Water Conservation

Vegetative cover with a ground canopy of perennial grasses and other cover cropping species.

Mulching with weeds, leaves, coconut fronds and coconuts husks.

Adding contour drains/bunds.

Burying spongy coconut husks in pits around trees.

Agroforestry

Some of our farms have thick canopies, high species diversity, and high biomass generation reducing soil erosion.

In such farms, we observe recycling of leaf litter, sustainability of soil fertility, reduced soil erosion, and improved food security.

Our innovative and comprehensive agroforestry project.
