Impact of Rejuvenation Project
• Controlling the spread of root wilt disease.
• Reversed declining productivity trend in Kerala.
• Improvement in general health- palms exhibited signs
of revival - due to application of recommended dose of
inputs.
• Growth in processing and export during last 5 years
with the increase in production and productivity.
• Implementation through FPOs enabled aggregation of
