When IDC took over management of the island in 1983, the intention was to continue coconut production and develop crop and animal farming, tourism and timber production. But increasing labour and transport costs made agriculture unviable and only tourism was developed, after the construction of a runway at the end of 1999. Today, abandoned coconut plantations cover much of Alphonse and St François Islands, with casuarina and scrubland dominating the remainder of the islands. Help our conservation team eradicate coconut palms and plant native trees on Alphonse to assist in restoring Alphonse’s natural habitat.
