Karnataka copra hits record ₹32,218 per quintal price

Copra prices in Karnataka touched a record ₹32,218 per quintal at Tiptur APMC in Tumakuru, offering relief to coconut farmers. The surge is driven by low supply, reduced yields, and strong demand for tender coconuts. Farmers selling fresh produce instead of copra have tightened supply, and experts expect prices to rise further in the coming months.
