A demonstration of the Coconut Climbing Device was
organized on 2nd November 2025 at the ICAR–CIARI Regional Station, Minicoy as part of the
Janjatiya Gaurav Diwas 2025 celebrations. The event aimed to promote safe and efficient coconut
harvesting through farm mechanization suited to island conditions. A live demonstration was
conducted to showcase the design, operation, and safety features of the device, followed by hands-
on experience for participants. The demonstration successfully created awareness about modern
tools for coconut cultivation and reflected ICAR–CIARI’s continued efforts toward promoting
sustainable, inclusive, and technology-driven agricultural development in the Lakshadweep Islands.
