often used for fashion shoes, caps, even a

bees. A clump of unopened flowers may be
bound tightly together, bent over and its tip
bruised. It produces a steady dripping of
sweet juice (called the sap) up to a gallon
per day. It contains 16-30 mg ascorbic
acid/100g.

husk
- test show that coconut coir (80%) and abaca
bleached sulfate pulp (40%) are a good
combination in the production of offset
book paper.
- Coir is the fiber from the husk-used in ropes,
yarns, carpet, rugs, brushes, caulking boats,
stuffing fiber, bristles for making potting
compost in horticulture, mulch for plant
growing
- The dried husk of the coconut makes the
best cooking fire for barbecues or just plain
camp fire cooking; mosquito coil; mosquito
smudges
- The smoke of the burning husk is a natural
mosquito repellent
- The dried fibers of the nut can be shredded
as stuffing for pillows, mattresses, car seats,
upholstery, life-preservers
- For planters; plant holders; flower pots
- For resin of the inner husk is used for
toothache relief
- For erosion control; geotextile; for electrical
insulators
- Fiber is resistant to sea water and is used
for cable and rigging on ships
