CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION

HISTORY OF THE DISTRICT

Kozhikode as a district came into existence on 1st January 1957. After the formation of Kerala state in 1956, when Malabar district was divided into three districts, the Central district with headquarters at Calicut (Kozhikode) was named as Kozhikode. The district, which initially had 5 taluks, had undergone several changes and the present district with 4 taluks was formed in 2013. The early history of the district is lost in obscurity. Neither inscription nor works of classical geographers and poets help us in reconstructing in full its early history. However, it is certain that during the Sangam Age the district formed part of the empire of the Cheras. During the Sangam age i.e. in the first two centuries of A.D the district was known as Poozhinad, which was later, annexed to Chera empire. The history of Kozhikode district for the next few centuries i.e. upto 8th century A.D is obscure. Kozhikode and its surroundings were part of Polanad ruled by Kolathiris. The ancestors of present Zamorin family defeated Kolathiri’s forces and established their headquarters at Kozhikode. Because of the persistent efforts and administrative abilities of the rulers who were later known as Zamorin, Kozhikode became an important commercial and trading centre during post Sangam age. During the pre Portuguese period the Zamorin achieved the suzerainty over a large track of land and many neighbouring Rajas accepted him as their protector. When Portuguese arrived in the political scene of Kerala, there were a few major and minor rulers in this part of the country. The major rulers comprised of Kolathiri Raja in the north, Zamorin in the central belt and the King of Venad in the south. Vasco Da Gama landed at Kappad near Calicut on 27th May 1498 and this visit can be considered as an important event in the history of Kerala. Zamorin permitted the Portuguese to build a factory at Calicut. Portuguese dominated the scene for a long time taking advantage of the enemity between Zamorin and the rulers of Cochin. Zamorin’s fleet under the command of Kunjali Marakkar defeated the Portuguese in several encounters. But taking advantage of the strained relationship between the Zamorin and the last Kunjali Marakkar, Portuguese aligned with the Zamorin. As per the agreement reached with the Portuguese, Zamorin took Kunjali IV as captive and handed

him over to the Portuguese who later hanged him. Subsequently Portuguese withdrew from the scene. The Dutch entered the political scene of Kerala only in 1663 by the capture of Cochin from the Portuguese though the Zamorin’s territories were also frequently visited by many Dutch admirals. The Dutch was in Kerala only for a short period. The modern history of Kozhikode starts with the arrival of the British. In 1615, they entered at Calicut coast. Slowly they established their foothold in this large track of land, as a result of the political happening in the rest of the peninsula. The Mysorean intervention in Kerala started as early as 1757. Hyder Ali who ascended the throne of Mysore in 1761 brought Calicut also under his control after conquering Kolathiri, Kottayam and Kadathanad. After the departure of Hyder Ali from Calicut in 1768, revolts from local chieftains against his authority started. At the end of 1773, Hyder made a second invasion of Kerala through Coorg and Wayanad. Zamorin left Calicut and took refuge in the Kingdom of Travancore. Hyder Ali ruled the area by appointing a military Governor for some period. In 1778, rebellion broke out against the Mysorean ruler with the encouragement of English East India Company. After the death of Hyder Ali, Tippu Sultan succeeded him. Tippu’s conquests and the founding of Feroke are the important events during the period. Tippu again came to Malabar in 1789 through Thamarasseri pass. However his suzerainty over the Malabar region could not last long. He was defeated by the British force. By the treaty of Srirangapatanam which concluded on 18th March 1792, the whole of erstwhile Malabar district including the present Kozhikode district was ceded to the English East India Company. Malabar became part of Madras presidency till the reorganisation of states in 1956.

PHYSICAL FEATURES

Natural Region

The natural region of the state is based on the regional classifications designed by the census organisation. According to the classification, the whole country is divided into 4 macro regions viz., (i) the northern mountains, (ii) the great plains, (iii) the deccan plateau and (iv) the coastal plains and islands. Kerala belongs to the 4th macro region – ‘The coastal plains and islands’, which is again divided into 4 meso regions. Of the 4 meso regions Kerala falls under the western coastal region which covers the coastal tract from Maharashtra to

Industrial Potential Survey 2017 - Kozhikode Page 5

Kerala State. The meso region is further divided into 6 micro regions. The entire Kerala falls into such three micro regions viz., (i) North Kerala Coast, (ii) Central Kerala Coast and (iii) South Kerala Coast. The Kozhikode district falls in the North Kerala Coast. Each Micro region is further divided into Sub-micro regions on the basis of topography, geology, soils, climate and natural vegetation. Thus Kozhikode falls under three such Sub-micro regions viz. (i) Kozhikode Coast (ii) NadapuramMavur undulating plain and (iii) Kozhikode forested hills

Location and size

Kozhikode district is situated on the southwest coast of India. The district is bounded on the north by Thalasserry taluk of Kannur district, on the east by Mananthavady and Vythiri taluks of Wayanaddistrict, on the south by Ernad and Tirur taluks of Malappuram district and on the west by Lakshadweep Sea. This district lies between north latitude 11°7’22" and 11°48’32" and east longitudes 75°30' and 76°8’20".

Area

Kozhikode District has an area of about 2345 sq.km and ranks 9th in the state among the districts in area It accounts for 6.04 percentage of the total area of the State(38852 SqKms).

Topography

Topographically the district has three distinct regions – the sandy coastal belt, the rocky highlands formed by the hilly portion of the Western Ghats and laterite midland. All the three taluks of the district are spread over the three regions.

Basking in the idyllic setting of serene Arabian Sea on the west and the proud peaks of the Wayanad hills on the east, this district is rich in natural scenery. In the north, sandy coastal strip of Vadakara and Quilandy taluks slopes upwards as one goes inland until it is lost in broken laterite hill rocks. Road communications along the coast are broken by a never ending sequence of backwater sand river mouth which provide the district with a cheap and unfairly network of waterways. The district has all the elements that fascinate a visitor. There is a natural harbour at Beypore.

Industrial Potential Survey 2017 - Kozhikode Page 6

Physiography

(i) Kozhikode Coast This region lies all along the coast of Kozhikode district dissecting all

taluks of the district. It is bounded on the north by Kannur district, on the east by Nadapuram-Mavur undulating plains and on the west by Lakshadweep Sea. Rivers, backwaters, and canals drain the coastal tract and Kozhikode coast is generally lower than the Kannur coast. Some of the backwaters, canals and rivers are used for inland navigation. Marshy lands are found in pockets. Remanants of ancient sand dunes are also seen.The district has a coastal length of about 80 kms Coconut and tapioca are the major crops. This coastal tract is well served by the west coast railway line and network of roads. NH-17 pass through this region. All the towns of this district are located in this region amongst Kozhikode is the most important. Other important settlements are Vadakara, Quilandy, Feroke and Beypore.

(ii) Nadapuram-Mavur Undulating Plain

This region is hemmed between the Kozhikode coast and the Kozhikode

Forested Hills. Its boundaries are Taliparamba-Kuthuparamba plain in the north, Kozhikode Forested Hills in the east, Malappuram Undulating Plain in the south and Kozhikode coast in the west. It is an undulating plain having hills here and there. Marshy lands in Waderi (east of Quilandy) are noticed. Ground water level is comparatively higher in southern region. Maximum height (244 m) is found at the village of Panangad and minimum height (122 m) in the Chekkiaddesam of Chekkiad village of Badagara Taluk. This region slopes towards west. All the rivers of this district pass through this region. In the southern portion of this region, subdued and isolated hills separated from the main mountain chain are found. The river course of Korapuzha and Beypore rivers are flowing meandering characters which implies that flood plains have attained a natural condition. Coconut, paddy and arecanut are the major crops grown here. All the important places of this region are well connected by roads. Nadapuram, Perambra and Koduvally are some of the

Industrial Potential Survey 2017 - Kozhikode Page 7

important settlements here. Most of the settlements are found on either side of roads.

(iii) Kozhikode Forested Hills

This region forms the border of Wayanad and Kozhikode districts

intersecting all the taluks of the district. Its boundaries are Kannoth Forested Hills in the north, Wayanad Forested Hills in the east, Nilambur Forested Hills in the south and Nadpuram-Mavur Undulating Plain in the west. This region is an unbroken strip in the western side of the Wayanad plateau. It is a scarp slope area and has a sudden drop of 600 to 700 metres in height within a distance of one kilometre from the edge of the plateau. This region forms the catchment area of all the rivers of this district. The rivers, which originate from the ridgelines, plunge down to the plains resulting deep gorges and occasional land slides in rainy season. The river pattern is from trellis to dentritic. At the centre of this region has the Kuttiadi reservoir. The maximum height (2339 m) of this region is located at the reserve forest area in the eastern portion and minimum height (152 m) is at the Valayamkara of Valayam village of Vadakara taluk. This region has dense forest of wet evergreen to moist deciduous forest type. Mountains

The eastern region of this district is a mountainous plateau with lofty hills covered by thick forests. Nattavaram hill with a height of 1388 m. is situated in this region. The highest mountain in the ghat sector within the district of Kozhikode is the Vaval Mala (2339 m)

Type of land formation

The general terrain of the district is sloping from east to west. The

Western Ghats forms a natural barrier on the east while the western side is washed by the Lakshadweep Sea. Major portions of the district comprise plains though it has some outlying hills and dales. The eastern extremity of the district borders the Wayanad plateau. The district has coastal lengths of 80

Industrial Potential Survey 2017 - Kozhikode Page 8

km. broken by number of rivers. As a result of formation of the hilly Wayanad district, the former Kozhikode district has lost major portion of the forest area. Now the forest area lies as a narrow belt on the eastern side of the district bordering Wayanad district. Drainage

As in the case of other districts Kozhikode has also an important position in the water potential map of the state. The rivers are navigable for country boats and motorboats. The important rivers are Kuttiadi (Murad), Korapuzha, Kallai, Chaliyar, Beypore, Kadalundi, Puraparamba and Mahe.

(i) Kuttiadi River

Kuttiadi river originates from Wayanad hills and flows through

Thriuvallur, Muyipott, Maniyur, Karuvanchira etc. before it reaches Lakshadweep Sea at Kottakal port about 7 km south of Vadakara. The length of the river is 74 km and it flows through an area of 583 sq.kms. . The total catchment area is about 430 km. Timber logs are usually floated along the river.

(ii) Korapuzha

Korapuzha is formed by the confluence of two streams called

Punnurpuzha and Agalapuzha. Punnurpuzha originates from ArikkanKunni hills at an elevation of 610 metres above sea level and flows through Unikulam, Keadvur, Raroth, Koduvally, Kunnamangalam, Kuruvathur, Chelammurand Kaddodi villages. Agalapuzha originates from Kodiyandumala at an elevation of 700 metres and flows through Keezhariyoor, Panthalayani, Vlliyeri, Chengottukavu, Atholi and Chemancherri of Quilandy taluk and joins the other streams near Elathur. It forms part of west coat inland navigation system connecting all-important towns such as Vadakara, Kozhikode, Kallai, Beypore etc. The total length of the river is 40 km.

(iii) Kallai River

Industrial Potential Survey 2017 - Kozhikode Page 9

Kallai River has its origin from the midland village of Cherukulathur at an elevation of 45 metres above sea level. This river passes through Cherukulathur, Kovur, Olavanna, Manava and Kallai before it reaches the Lakshadweep Sea at Kozhikode. It is connected with Chaliyar and Korapuzha with artificial canals. The length of the river is 22 kms. and it has a drainage area of 96 sq.kms. Though small in size, thiswas one of the most important rivers in the entire state from the commercial point of view. Kallai,once a main centre of timber trade is situated on its banks. (iv) The Chaliyar

Known in the lower reaches as the Beypore River, this is one of the

major rivers of the state. The lower reaches form part of the west coast inland navigation system. It originates from the Ilambilari hills in Gudalur taluk of Nilagiri district in Tamil Nadu. The Chaliyarpuzha, the Punnapuzha, the Pandiyar, the Karumpuzha, the Vadapurampuzha, the Iringapuzha and the Iruthilpuzha are its important tributaries. As an inter-state river, this has a total drainage area of 2923 sq.kms. of which 2535 sq.kms. lie in Kerala and the rest, 388 sq.kms. in Tamil Nadu with a length of 169 kms., the Chaliyar river flows through Nilambur, Mambad, Edavanna, Areacode, Vazhakkad in Malappuram district and Feroke in Kozhiokode district before it joins the Lakshadweep Sea.

(v) Kadalundi River

Kadalundi River is formed by the confluence of its two main tributaries, the Olipuzha and Veiyar. This has a length of 130 km. This river joins Lakshadweep Sea at about 5 km. south of Chaliyar river mouth. The Kadalundi River known also by the name Karumpuzha and Oravanpurampuzha is a navigable river. Motorboats can ply up Karuvarakundu during the rainy season. Timber logs and Bamboo rafts are floated down to Kallai and Ponnani through this river.

(vi) Pooraparamba River

Industrial Potential Survey 2017 - Kozhikode Page 10

The Pooraparamba River, a small stream, is also included in this basin, as its length is only 8 kms. with a drainage area of 23.8 kms. The total drainage area of the basin is thus 1122 sq.kms.

(vii) Mahe River

The Mahe River also called the Mayyazhipuzha, orginates from the forests on the western slopes of the Wayanad hills, which form part of the Western Ghats. This river flows through the villages of Naripettah, Vanimel, Iyyamcode, Bhekiyad, Iringannur, Tripangathur, Peringalam, Edachery, Kacheri, Eramala, Kariyad, Olavilam, Kunnumakkara, Azhiyoor and Mahe before emptying into the Arabian sea at the former French settlement of Mahe; about 6 kms. south of Thalassery. The length of the river is about 54 kms. and it flows through an area of 394 sq.kms.

Sea Coast The sea coast of the district is 80 km. long. There is a natural harbour at

Beypore. Vadakara and Kozhikode are the other important ports of the district. Backwaters and Canals

The important backwater in the district is Kuttiyadithura in Vadakara taluk. As a part of west coast canal system there is a continuous water route connecting Vadakara with Ponnani.The canal passing through Kozhikode is named as Canoly Canal.

Climate

The district has humid climate with a very hot season extending from March to May. The most important rainy season is during the southwest monsoon, which sets in the first week of June, and extents upto September. The northeast monsoon extends from the second half of October through November. During December to March, practically no rain is received and from October onwards, the temperature gradually increases to reach the maximum in May, which is the hottest month of the year. The maximum temperature in the month of May comes to 36ºC. The maximum temperature recorded at Kozhikode was 39.4ºC during the month of March 1975 and lowest temperature was 14ºC recorded on the 26th December 1975.Humidity is very

From the above table it is seen that Kozhikode district had received less rainfall than the normal during the two monsoon years shown above except 2014-15. It may be noted that the District had received more rainfall than that of State during all the monsoon years.

Forests

The north eastern portion of Kozhikode district bordering Wayanad district is covered by forests. The forest area suitable for raising plantations are being classified and planted up with Teak, Softwood, Rawulfia, Serpentina, Sandalwood, Mula, Vengas, Kadampa etc. The important products collected from the forest are timber, bamboo and minor forest products such as ginger, cardamom, honey, arrowroot, bees ware, cashew, pepper etc.

The total area under forests in Kozhikode district is estimated at 262.63 sq.kms as per the village directory data. Forest covers 11.20% of the area of the district.

Kozhikode Territorial Division comprises of three forest ranges viz. Thamarasserry, Peruvannamuzhy and Kuttiady. Kozhikode taluk comes under

Industrial Potential Survey 2017 - Kozhikode Page 12

the Range Officer, Thamarasserry where as Koyilandy and Vadakara comes under Range Officers, Peruvannamuzhy and Kuttiady respectively.

The natural forest of the district fall under three main types, the southern tropical moist deciduous, western tropical wet evergreen and semi evergreen.

Flora and Fauna

The flora of Kozhikode district is characteristically tropical due to the heavy rainfall, moderate temperature and the high mountains in eastern border. The region is thickly populated and a greater part is under cultivation mainly of coconuts, paddy, plantain, various tuber crops like tapioca, yams, colocasia and other vegetables.

The principal western tropical wet evergreen species are PakquisumEllipticum, SalmaliaMalabarica, Mappilafoetida (inhabiting species top camopy layer) Canariumstrictum, ChrysophyllumRexhurghi, Oleadiocea, Canes, Wild arrow roots, Screw pinesetc.There is an abundance of wild and marine life here. Though wild elephants and bisons are occasionally seenin the forests, tigers and leopards are very few and rare.Barking deer, mouse deer, monta lizards, malabar squirrels, black and grey monkeys, hares and porcupines are found in the forests here. The avions are well represented by horn bills, peacocks, jungle fowls, thrushes, pigeons, sunbirds, kingfishers, wood peckers, paradisefly catchers, parrots, mynas, king crows, rachuet tailed drangos etc. Snakes, poisonous and non-poisonous are seen in the forests in fairly large numbers. Pythons are also seen in many parts of Kozhikode.

Geology and Economic Minerals

The geological formation found in this district are four in number viz. (i) a belt of crystalline rocks of the Archean group (ii) a belt of residual laterite (iii) a belt of Warkalli beds of Tertiary group and (iv) a western most coastal belt of recent deposits. Clay, lime shell, magnetic iron ore,Crystalline rocks andlaterites are the economic minerals seen in this district. Tile clays are manufactured extensively at Feroke for the manufacturers of tiles and bricks for which there are several factories functioning in this area. Lime shell is

Industrial Potential Survey 2017 - Kozhikode Page 13

exploited from Kadalundi and Korapuzha rivers. Magnetic iron ores occur at a number of places such as Nanmanda, Cheekilode and Kanniparamba etc. in Kozhikode taluk. Crystalline rocks as well as laterites are extensively used for building purposes.

Soils

The soils of this district can be classified into three viz. sandy, laterite and hilly or forest. The sandy soil occurs all along the western side of Vadakara, Quilandy and Kozhikode taluks. Major soil is sandyalluvium of recent deposit which are technically classified as orthents-psamments-aquents. This soil has originated predominantly from marine, with some fluvial sediments along the coastal line. The soil is immature with high sand contents and low water holding capacity with PH value less than 6.5 in most of the areas. Paddy, tapioca and coconut are mostly grown in this type of soil.

The laterite soil is formed by weathering mainly of acidic rocks under alternate wet and dry tropical condition. The laterite soil occurs east of the sandy track which covers a major part of the district. All garden land crops like coconut, arecanut, fruit, palm etc. are grown in this soil. The soils of this region are riverine alluvium and brown hydromorphic soils, technically called orthents-tropepts. Along the Kuttiadi river, riverine alluvium which cut across the extensive laterite soil are seen. Brown hydromorphic soil also occurs in this region, which is commonly found in wet lands. They are moderately rich in organic matter, nitrogen and potash and deficient in lime and phosphate.

The hilly and forest soil is characterised by surface layer of organic matter derived from forest growth. This soil is particularly suited for plantation crops such tea, coffee, cardamom, rubber etc. The soils of this region are riverine alluvium and brown hydromorphic soil, technically called orthents-tropets. Along the Kuttiadi river, we find riverine alluvium which cut across the extensive laterite soil. Brown hydromorphic soil also occurs in this region, which commonly found in wet lands. They are moderately rich in organic matter, nitrogen and potash and deficient in lime.

Land and land use patterns

Unemployment of the educated youth is a serious concern of the society. One of the cause of the problem is a mismatch between the skills that employers need and skills possessed by potential job seekers. The solution is to develop their skills and enhance employability. One employability centre is functioning in the district under employment exchange to

boost placement provide good quality skilled work force to the industry promote Self Employment

About 43 Lakhs of unemployed persons have registered in the Employment Exchanges. On a close watch it is seen that most of them belong to one the following group.

a) Some possess qualification but having no skill.

b) Some of them possess skill but having no certificate.

c) Some of them possess both certificate and skill but are not aware of the opportunities around them.

It is not possible to provide government job to all the educated unemployed persons of Kerala. So it is the social indebtedness of the government to make the unemployed educated youth to equip them to exploit other opportunities available within the country and abroad.

CHAPTER 5. INDUSTRIES

Kozhikode District has a total land area of 2344 Sq.Km. and a coastal line of about 71Km. Kozhikode, with all its achievements in physical quality of life of people, quality of infrastructure, availability of qualified manpower, materials- both natural & agricultural resources, good climate presents a paradox in the industrial front. It remains industrially backward compared to Ernakulum, Thiruvananthapuram, Trissur, Palakkad etc. In spite of Vast unemployed educated manpower and high saving rates (of large gulf employees). Not only had a good part of its manpower went outside the state for employment but its entrepreneurship also went outside Kerala for investment. In order to promote investment and employment, an aggressive repositioning strategy has become the need of the hour. The Government has taken a series of measures in this regard. The Malabar spinning Mill Thiruvannur, Kerala soap factory, the steel Complex etc. revitalized by the appropriate action of government in the right time.. The industrial policy aimed at, to make the state an investor friendly one. On the One hand, the available capital, skilled man power and resources are not being tapped adequately. On the other there is a large educated unemployed, reserve army; this is a paradox. To reduce the size of unemployment, to utilise the existing resources to the maximum extent possible; to increase the production, income and employment, the only way is the growth of MSME Sector.

x. SWOT ANALYSIS 1. Strength Commercial Culture of Kozhikode district People are highly enterprising Qualified work force highly literate technically skilled Good infrastructure i.e, Road, Port, Airport, Power, land, water etc. Banking facilities are relatively good with 420 branches including SIDBI. The Foot wear Design Development Institute, (FDDI) Cheruvannur

established to give skill training in foot wear industry which is having high employment, market potential and is having potential for coming up of ancillary industrial units.

The recently started EDP institute of the District Lead Bank i.e; Canara Bank at Olavanna which is capable of imparting skill and management training to entrepreneurs.

Industrial Potential Survey 2017 - Kozhikode Page 56

The Degree course in food technology of Calicut University is a favourable step in establishing more and more food, agro based industries.

NIT Kozhikode, Govt. Engineering college, Govt. Polytechnics, KMCT College of Engineering Mukkom AWH college of engineering Kuttikkattur, ITIs, ITCs, Department of Electronics Accreditation Chathamangalam, IIM Kunnamangalam, CWRDM Kunnamangalam , Central Fisheries Institute Kozhikode, Govt.Analytical Lab Malaparamba.

Adequate agricultural resources – being agro based economy the scope for resource based industry is immense coconut, pepper, banana, pineapple, rubber, areca nut, paddy, spices, tapioca, plantain, Vegetables, etc. Value added Products can be manufactured using these raw materials.

Good Fisheries, marine forest resources, and quality clay available. Good climate Large NRI ready to invest in industries The large population of the district ensures good market prospects for

all consumer goods – food based/ agro based, plastic & rubber products, footwear , Building construction materials, such as Hollow bricks, floor tiles, interlock bricks, paper bag, paper cup, readymade garments, mechanical engineering, IT, software Development, workshop etc.

LSGDS are showing more encouragement by purchasing land/ constructing sheds for starting of industrial units.

Availability of Mini Industrial Estate of SIDCO, Industries departments, Sheds/Plots of Industries department.

Land Acquisition going on for the Govt.Syber Park at Nellikkode,Calicut. UL SyberPark Building work is in progress. Craft Village at Iringal started functioning.

2. Weakness

Non availability of land at reasonable rates. Scattered input resources and its seasonal availability Non availability of skilled labour 32 % of the Laborers are from outside

Kerala

Industrial Potential Survey 2017 - Kozhikode Page 57

Poor entrepreneurship Most of the units are Micro and have poor economic viability for

competing with bigger units Absence of Large scale industries retard the growth of ancillary units. Inadequate availability Technical consultants. Inadequate work culture Irregular Power supply Poor co-ordination between different supporting agencies.

3. Opportunities

In olden days Uru manufacture at Beypore was world famous. But now due to non-availability of skilled labourers in this field, one uru/ year is manufactured. If we can impart skill training, we can ensure the growth of this sector which will result in more employment opportunities.

2. With the proposed Beypore Port Development Programme, Beypore Marine park Development Programme, Ramanattukara Knowledge park, cyber parks at Kozhikode, Footwear park at Kinalur, Nadapuram Development Programme, which include skill Development training Kuttiady coconut processing Project, Medicinal plant development plan, Renovation steel complex, Malabar spinning and weaving mills, Thiruvannur, starting of Kerala soaps will no doubt a boost for the growth of units and ancillaries in the respects such as light engineering industry, high end products, marine products, IT sector, footwear sector, food based units, medicinal plant cultivation & processing sector, etc.

The hukah manufactured at Koyilandy is world famous. Non availability of skilled labour is the main problem faced in this field. By imparting skill training we can boost the growth of this sector.

Vadakara is famous for cement pot production. But non availability of quality sand is their problem. If it is made available it will help in the growth of this industry.

Interior decoration (on cloth – curtain, pillow cover, table cloth etc) which is called “Chendu” is manufactured at Koyilandy – Kolavikadapuram Payyoli is having very good export potential. If skill

Industrial Potential Survey 2017 - Kozhikode Page 58

training is imparted to the entrepreneurs there; there is much scope for the growth of this industry and having much employment potential also.

Nadapuram development plan programmes which include Skill development, Medicinal plant cultivation, (680 person given training in Medicinal plant cultivation) the proposed Coconut processing unit at Kuttiady etc. will help the growth of industries in Agrobased sector and overall Industrial development including construction material production.

There is great potential for shell fish (“Kakka”) processing industries, About 40 items of processed food can be prepared from “Kakka”. It is grown in the Kadalundi and Chaliyar river.

There are 11 tile factories working in the district. Even though economic recession adversely affected the market it can be boosted if quality clay is supplied smoothly in time. As Tiles are used in all most all the terrace building there is scope for the industry.

LPG (Liberalisation, Privatisation and Globalisation) policy of government. Good quality products can be sold anywhere in the world.

Change in investment climate in favour of MSMEs. Decline in foreign employment opportunities due to worldwide

economic recession open the scope for more industries by NRIS. Calicut halwa and chips are world famous. There is still much scope for

these industries. If marketing outlets are provided to pottery workers of Feroke, Olavanna

and handicraft units at Beypore, there will be much scope for the growth of such industries.

There is much scope for Gem cutting polishing and Gold coverage ornaments industries in the district as the price of Gold is high skilled and Goldsmith are available in the district.

Paper based products, PU footwear (Paper cup, Carton Box), construction material units, Wood based units, Ayurvedic medicine manufacturing units, and readymade garments etc. are having immense scope in this district.

Above all the Bird sanctuary at Kadalundi, Beypore Pulimoodu, the beautiful Kadalundi Kadavu bridge which is built on kadalundi river and

Industrial Potential Survey 2017 - Kozhikode Page 59

Arabian sea sangamam; the Kandalkadu; gives ample scope for tourism and handicraft industries (model vessels) and transport industry.

4. Threats

Competition from outside. Lack of entrepreneurship and technology training facilities and lack of

industrial culture resulted in poor confidence of entrepreneurs. Inability to achieve Technical standards and scale of economies Professional Managers and project consultancy are still lacking. Lack of awareness about industrial opportunity and technology. Non availability of suitable land. The cost of land is relatively high.

locally. The organized sector units like MILMA is bringing milk from nearby states

like Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. There is good scope for a large number of dairy

farms in Kerala.

2. Market

Milk is daily requirement in the day to day life of human beings. Kerala is not self

sufficient in milk production and it is dependent on nearby states for milk. Because of

this reason, the milk price is not stable in Kerala.

There is enough scope for setting up milk supply centre (Dairy farms) in Kerala.

3. Process of manufacture

In Dairy farms good milk cows and buffalos are reared. Milk is collected & chilled in

hygienic conditions. A major portion of the milk is supplied to milk marketing

units/own supply. A part of production is utilized for marketing ghee, curd, etc. and

these products are sold in the market.

3. PROJECT PROFILE ON PACKAGED DRINKING WATER

INTRODUCTION

This project report envisages details on setting up small scale Industrial unit for the

manufacturing and marketing of packaged drinking water with semi automatic machine.

Commonly used natural water is purified by Chlorinisation only. Chlorinisation is usefull

only for primary disaffection and facility is inadequate. these are greatly effects the hygiene

and health of the public. The UNO has , of late ,valuated drinking water as one among the

most valuable commodities on earth.

Since the demand of pure drinking water in increasing day by day with steady

improvement in the standard of living of common people and hence there is good scope for

setting up more well equipped small scale units in our state / Country. Most of the water

borne diseases emanate from unclean water, packaged drinking water ensure safe, clean,

potable water for human consumption. In olden days packaged drinking water was consumed

only by upper class who could afford the cost. But consequent on industrial growth and the

better standard of life ,all classes of people now consume it.

4. PROJECT PROFILES ON VIRGIN COCONUT OIL

Introduction

Virgin coconut oil (VCO), extracted from fresh coconut meat without chemical

processes is said to be the "mother of all oils". It is rich in medium chain fatty acids,

particularly lauric acid and is a treasure trove of minerals, vitamins, antioxidants and is an

Industrial Potential Survey 2017 - Kozhikode Page 73

excellent nutraceutical. It has about 50% lauric acids, having qualities similar to mother's

milk, thus confirming its disease-fighting ability. When lauric acid enters human body it gets

converted to Monolaurin, which has the ability to enhance immunity. VCO is not subjected to

high temperatures, solvents or refinement procedures and therefore retains the fresh scent and

taste of coconuts. It is rich in vitamin E, is non-greasy, non-staining. Virgin coconut oil is

considered to be the most versatile of all vegetable oils. It is extremely stable with almost

indefinite shelf life. It has no cholesterol and is an excellent source of energy. VCO is found

to be easily digestible and provides a good source of instant energy for sports people, the

elderly and growing children including infants.VCO is used as massage oil to smooth and

cool the body. One of the main differences between virgin coconut oil and refined coconut oil

is the scent and taste.

Markets

Some of the major usages of virgin coconut oil are for use as;

cooking oil

The VCO has an excellent export market potential as the same is increasingly being used in

UK, continental Europe, United States .The present export share market of India is only a

merge 22% and this is because of the low level of production and high demand in domestic

market.

3 Technical Aspects

3.1 Process

The technology for the production of virgin coconut oil is the DIRECT MICRO

EXPELLING (DME) technology, and this technology is developed by Kokonut pacific pty

Ltd, Australia in collaboration with CSIRO of Australia. The process for the production of

Industrial Potential Survey 2017 - Kozhikode Page 74

virgin coconut oil involves grating of coconut flesh and removal of moisture using specially

designed thermal driers. This involves applying the required heat to the grated kernel before

pressing out the oil. The heating process is gentle in that the material is constantly turned and

tossed to speed up the drying process. This stage takes about 30 to 45 minutes. Thus it is not

subjected to the high temperature s of most other oil extraction systems. It is usually between

45°C and 60°C immediately before pressing.
