Coconut production plays an important role in the national economy of India. According to figures published by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, India is one of the world's largest producers of coconut, with a turn out of 11,706,343 tonnes (11,521,459 long tons) in 2018.[1]

Traditional areas of coconut cultivation are the Malabar and Coromandel coasts. The states of Kerala, Karnataka, and Tamil Nadu practise large-scale intensive farming of coconut. Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Orissa, West Bengal, Gujarat, Assam, Pondicherry, and Goa; and the island territories of Lakshadweep, and Andaman and Nicobar are other areas of coconut production.
