Coconut Climber in Trivandrum

How many coconut climbers (thandan) do you know in your locality?
Do you have a regular fellow to pluck coconuts?
What is the going market rate for these workers?

There’s a big scarcity of coconut climbers in Trivandrum. I may not be wrong, it applies to other parts of Kerala. I keep hearing from my friends about the high rate for these people.

Why is supply very less while demand in high. While it’s not an easy profession, there’s a big opportunity for people to come to this arena. Of course, there are now tools available to help people climb trees safer and more easier.

Why not sponsor a training for local people in your locality?
