Meloor, a scenic village located on the south bank of Chalakudy river, has been famous for its plantations. The land is highly fertile due to alluvial deposits and is ideal for banana and tapioca cultivation. Agriculture has been the backbone of the village and Meloor was once the largest producer of banana in the State.
In the economic point of view also banana cultivation is very significant since it is labour intensive and delivers quick returns.
The authorities should take steps to reduce unemployment by integrating farming system methodologies. Also, technical support should be ensured to individual or group horticulture businesses for shifting to sustainable practices. Meloor should be brought back as the largest producer of banana.
