    FPRDI PROCEEDINGS OF flvf0-3 INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON COCOWOOD UllLIZATIONTECHNOLOGIES FOREWORD The third International Conference on Cocowood Utilization, organized principally by the Forest Products Research and Development Institute (FPRDI) in coordination with the International Tropical Timber Organization (ITTO) and the Common Fund for Commodities (CFC), was successfully conducted on 26-29 October at Holiday Inn, Manila, Philippines. Held 18 years after the second meeting in Zamboanga, Philippines in 1979, the organizers underscored the importance of the 1997 conference as the crucial link in the 18-year gap between the last two international gatherings on cocowood utilization ever convened. This Proceeding presents the highlights of the conference, the papers presented in each session, as well as the discussions after each session. The conference could not have been successfully conducted had it not been for the moral support of the ITTO and CFC. Also, many ITTO-3 Project Staff and FPRDI Staff who made up the conference committees worked very hard to make the affair a success. Space is not enough to thank all of them individually. To all those who helped towards the successful conclusion of the conference, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. /) } , . " ,/' /1~tf ~.~~llf{~ J,lOMULO C.

Doctoral dissertation 2013, Social Anthropology, School of Global Studies, University of Gothenburg, Box 700, 405 30 Gothenburg, Sweden.

The importance of giving, receiving and reciprocating for the shaping and consolidation of social relations has long been recognized. This thesis uses these insights to explore the way in which the gift of disaster aid, which derives from outside the community, impacts upon local social and cosmological relations in a village. The main objective is to investigate how the Boxing Day 2004 tsunami and the immense wave of aid that followed it and subsequently receded, affected the local moral economy in a Sri Lankan village.

  • Processing of High Value Coconut Products and Suitable Machinery for Their Production
    PROCESSING OF HIGH VALUE COCONUT PRODUCTS AND SUITABLE MACHINERY FOR THEIR PRODUCTION P. G. Pimcliiliewa Abstract Owing lo lardy growth in the production ofcoconut oil over the last three decades, it faces the threat of being edged out of the international market. Processing of high value products has often met with failure in many countries inoslly because of incoiiipalibillty with the available local resources. Experience indicates that (lie location of small scale processing units in rural areas where raw material availability, labour and other requirements are not in short supply will be more appropriate than in organizing large processing units in or around metropolitan areas. While small producing countries in the Latin American and Caribbean benefit from the export of fresh nuts, the major producing countries have not tapped the existing potential. The prospects of producing and marketing of coconut based food products and beverages derived from the kernel, water and sap as well as shell based charcoal and coir products arc high. What is important is lo select processes appropriate lo local conditions and as such arc sustainable, | 1, Need for new strategies The need to search for new strategies in research and development for coconut if it were to be competitive is obvious. Tbe threat of coconut being edged out of tbe international market is staring in its face. Tbe following figures speak for it. Table I.

  • Coconut Research and Development in the Philippines
    COCONUT RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT IN THE PHILIPPINES Dely P. Gapasin* SUMMARY Research and development programs in agriculture and natural resources are planned, monitored and evaluated by the Philippine government through the Philippine Council for Agriculture and Resources Research and Development (PCARRD) in cooperation with the National Agriculture and Resources Research System (NARRS) and the private sector. Within the NARRS, the Philippine Coconut Authority (PCA) is the national center for coconut research. The R and D programs on coconut support the national goals of attaining sustainable economic growth, equitable distribution of products of development and total human development, Priority areas have been identified to meet the needs of the industry, while a number of programs have been launched to solve the pressing problems of the industry. Support to coconut R and D programs comes from the Philippine government, the private sector and through foreign linkages. Major breakthroughs in coconut R and D programs, as well as the strategies being pursued by the government and the private sector are described in this paper. INTRODUCTION The Philippines is the world's largest coconut producer. It contributes about 71% of the total world export of coconut oil and copra cake. In 1983, the earnings from the coconut, industry was about US $ 682 million. About 14 million Filipinos directly or indirectly rely on the coconut industry for livelihood. As one of the pillars of the Philippine economy, the coconut industry enjoys government support for its continuing development. In spite of its national economic importance, the Philippine coconut industry is still laden with problems. In the world market, price of copra fluctuates; while in the farm, productivity is low.
