People have turned the looks to rubber trees, because of the good price for rubber which that raised fell, and it was always more favourable, than coconuts. When the rubber prices fell downwards, locals rooted out rubber trees and instead of it started to raise cocoes which fructified during all year, as against the rubber which was not giving rubbers during a rainy season.
