AUTOMATIC COCONUT PALM TAPPING DEVICES.
NAVA has developed the world’s first robotics solution for tapping sap from coconut trees. Nava’s ‘Saper’ is not only solving the scarcity of manual tappers but also increasing the farmer’s income by 200% when compared to the manual tapping methods. Using a Saper,
the number of climbing coconut tree
for sap extraction by a manual tapper will be reduced from 5400 times to just 40 times in the entire lifespan of a tree, which is 5 years normally. It has a high global scale potential especially in South East Asia, Africa and Latin America.
