Macapuno is a very rare variety of coconut which can only be propagated into a true-to-type macapuno by means of embryo culture. And because of its high economic value, there is a big demand for macapuno in the local markets as well as in international markets. This offers a big opportunity for many Filipino farmers as they can venture into the business of producing macapuno.
