India produces two types of copra: milling copra and edible copra. Milling copra is primarily used for oil extraction, while edible copra is consumed as a dry fruit and comes in forms such as balls and cups. Copra is known for its high oil content, offering the highest percentage of oil among oilseeds.
Nutritionally, copra contains 65-68% fat, making it a rich energy source. It also comprises 15-20% carbohydrates, 9% protein, and 4.10% crude fiber. The carbohydrate component is largely composed of cellulose and sucrose, along with other sugars such as glucose and fructose. The presence of galactose, raffinose, and pentoses has also been reported, further enhancing its nutritional profile.
Edible copra is widely used in traditional recipes, snacks, and sweets due to its rich flavor and nutrient content. Milling copra, on the other hand, is processed to produce coconut oil, which is used in cooking, skincare, and various industrial applications.
Copra�¢??s versatility and nutritional benefits make it a vital product in India�¢??s agricultural economy and an essential ingredient in many industries. Its ability to provide high-quality oil and its role as a healthy dry fruit ensure its importance in both domestic and global markets.
Dry coconut copra is the result of sun-drying the white, fleshy interior of coconuts until it becomes copra. With a concentrated nutty flavor, this dried coconut product is commonly used in cooking, baking, and various culinary applications. The drying process enhances the natural coconut aroma, creating a versatile ingredient.
