KSACC is an organisation dedicated to expanding cashew cultivation and enhancing the domestic production of indigenous Raw Cashew Nut (RCN) in Kerala. The goal is to ensure a steady supply for the cashew industry and attain self-sufficiency.

To achieve this, the Government of Kerala (GoK) constituted KSACC in 2007 via G.O (MS) 55/2007/ID.

The agency aims to boost raw nut production from 65,000 MT to 1.5 lakh MT annually by promoting High Yielding Varieties of cashew grafts.
