These two palms have great potentials in their end products. My question today is which do you feel would be a better earner? Would it be the oil palm because of cooking oil and other oil products? On the other hand, the coconut palm is known as the tree of a thousand uses. So what is your opinion?

It would definitely be palm oil...seeing how it can be a substitute to fossil fuel

I thought so too. However, let's not underestimate dear old coconut. With it's thousand uses, it can be a great challenger to oil palm. One day, I do hope that oil palm would come up with another alternative for fuel too. Fuel is just getting too costly.
