ADOPTION OF COCONUT-BASED INTERCROPPING SYSTEMS IN SRI LANKA: THE FALLACY OF CONVENTIONAL WISDOM ON ECONOMIC PROFITABILITY

ADOPTION OF COCONUT-BASED INTERCROPPING SYSTEMS IN SRI LANKA: THE FALLACY OF CONVENTIONAL WISDOM ON ECONOMIC PROFITABILITY

Despite the concerted efforts of successive governments in Sri Lanka to popularize coconut-based intercropping (CBI) systems, an intensive land use alternative to traditional less intensive coconut monocropping, its adoption by farmers is as low as 25% of the agronomically potential area of 100,000 ha.Although the adoption of an innovation is influ
