The provision of coconut to consumers at low prices for the festive season will continue. A programme has been unveiled to provide coconuts at the rate of Rs. 30 per nut for the festive season under the mediation of the Coconut Development Ministry.

Under this programme, coconuts will be sold to the people in Colombo and the suburbs via the Self- Employed Federation. At the Coconut Cultivation Board about 100,000 coconuts were issued for distribution.

Accordingly, mobile vehicles have been deployed to carry out sales in the Nugegoda, Borella, Maradana, Pettah, Grandpass and Slave Island areas. The consumers displayed a keen interest in purchasing coconuts at reduced rates. Long queues were witnessed near the mobile vehicles.
