Brief Industrial Profile of Palakkad District

1. General Characteristics of the District

Palakkad or Palghat is the land of Palmyrahs and Paddy fields. Along with Kuttanadu, Palakkad is a major Paddy growing area of the state. It is often called as the “Gateway of Kerala”. The district is bounded on the North by Malappuram District, in the East by Coimbatore district of Tamilnadu, in the south by Thrissur district and in the west by Thrissur and Malappuram districts.

1.1 Location & Geographical Area

Palakkad District came into existence as an administrative unit on the 1st January, 1957. Presently Palakkad is the largest District in Kerala. Situated at the foot of the Western Ghats, this is the gateway to Kerala from North. It is bounded on the east by the Coimbatore District of Tamil Nadu, on the north and the north-west by Malappuram District and on the South by Thrissur District. It lies between 10º 20' and 11º 14' north latitude and between 76º 20' and 76º 54' east longitudes. The area of Palakkad District is 4480 sq.km. Palakkad is one among the five Districts in Kerala not having a sea coast. Palakkad District accounts for 11.21 per cent of the total area of the State.

1.2 Topography

The District is divided into two natural divisions viz. Midland and Highland based on the physical features. The Midland region consists of valleys and plains. The eastern region of this District has high mountains, extensive ravines and dense forests. The Western Ghat mountain ranges dominate the District. The entire area lies either in the Midland 8080 metres or in the Highland (above 80 meters). Land slopes up from West to North and North-East to South. The altitude varies between 15 meters in the west and 2500 meters in the north-east which contain high mountain peaks, long spurs, extensive dense forests and tangled jungles. While Ottappalam Taluk lies completely in the Midland region, all other Taluks in the District lie in the Midland and Highland regions.

1.3 Availability of Minerals

The land of the District is classified as undulating region (western part of the plateau), gorge region (central part of the land) and plain (at the foot of the Ghats). The following table shows the production of minerals in the district. The major mineral is granite building stone.

1 .4 Forest

The woods of the District can be classified as temperate forests, tropical wet evergreen forests (shola), tropical moist deciduous forests. Of these temperate forests are seen in the Silent Valley and in some blocks of Attappady reserves at an elevation of 1500 meters. The shola forests, characterised by the great luxuriance of vegetation having lofty trees of 46 meters often with plank buttresses at the base and shrubby undergrowth are found in higher areas of Attappady valley. The tropical moist deciduous forests grow in the plains upto 500 meters on westerly or southerly slopes of Chanet Nair Reserve, Puliampulli Reserve and the Kumrid slopes in Attappady block I and II.

The forest covers an area of 1628 sq.km including open forest also, which is 36.34 per cent of the total geographical area of the district. The forest of the district is spread over the north eastern portion of the district. The forest area of the district is administered by the Circle Office of the Forest Department at Olavakkode.

1.5 Administrative Set Up

There are two systems of administrative set up in the District – Revenue and Local Self Government. Under the revenue system a District is divided into Revenue Divisions, Taluks and Villages. However, for Local Administration, a District is divided into Statutory Towns and Panchayats. For the implementation of development activities Panchayats are grouped under Community Development Blocks. Therefore all these units viz. Taluks, Villages, Panchayats, Panchayat wards, Statutory Towns and Community Development Blocks have their own relevance and importance.
