  • Outside of rice and sugar, coconut is one of Guyana’s biggest agricultural export. The Pomeroon is renowned as the area where you could find the ‘sweetest’ coconut in Guyana. In this episode of GUYANA, the News Room's Neil Marks tries to find out why. He meets The Coconut Lady Vilma De Silva and tours one of the most modern operations in Guyana’s coconut industry.

    I am very proud of the inspiring work you are doing Vilma De Silva, not only for yourself but even creating more employment for others by having others packaging the coconut water. Continue to believing in yourself and motivate other woman in your community and always give God thanks for leading and guiding you to show the right examples to the people around you.🙏🤗🥂💗

    Guyana is moving in the right direction. This man has invested in the real gold. Nice operation. Simple and efficient. Hear is the thing; don’t rely on government for help. You are doing excellent so far.

    Well done Mr Ramotar, but you need to pay your worker a little more, and that will justify the interview. We will buy more of the coconut water.

    Good on this woman. Well done. Thanks for allowing her to share her back story. I really enjoyed this. You're a great listener and interviewer. She is such an inspiration. I hope she can influence other people. So funny same fruit different names. Mauritius has the same fruit in UK preserve sells very expensive.
    Side note . Did you know that coconut in Berbice tastes different from the ones in Pomeroon? All delicious, just different taste. I can drink one in one go. Is there a competition for this skill. I like to put my finger inside of the coconut walls, let the jelly fall into the water and drink the slivers of jelly with water.
