Life expectancy is a statistical measure defined as the expected (mean) survival of human beings based upon a number of criteria such as gender and geographic location. Popularly, it is most often construed to mean the life expectancy at birth for a given human population, which is the same as the expected age at death.

Lifespan and Fruit Production. Coconut palm trees live at least 80 years, according to the University of Florida Extension website. Coconut fruit production begins when the tree reaches 6 to 10 years of age, and reaches the height of production at 15 to 20 years. The tree will continue to fruit until it reaches 80 years of age.
