Abstract

This study investigates the factors affecting the pricing movements of copras in the 3rd District of Quezon. The finding sought to provide the information on what is the current situation of copra pricing and what strategies to address those factors. Data was gathered from 364 coconut farmers from the 12 municipalities of the 3rd District of Quezon, who responded using a descriptive survey design. Findings show that the majority of the livelihood of people in the 3rd District of Quezon is producing copras, where their income is from this production. However, challenges such as weather/climate, demand and supply, middlemen/traders, and action of the government make a huge impact on the pricing movement of copra. The recommendations for the pricing movements of copras are provided.
