Husking of coconut is among the most-difficult post-harvest operations relevant to coconut. Traditionally the
entire husking is done manually using either a machete or a crowbar, and it involves much human drudgery, skill,
training, and endurance. There are lots of machines invented all over the world to mechanize this operation, but only a
few of them are available in market, sadly some of them have vanished from the market and the rest have not reached
the market yet due to many reasons. So a study was conducted about the various coconut husking machines which were
made so far stating what are advantages and disadvantages of them, the study included both the manually and
mechanized versions of husking mechanisms.
