Studies of locally Effective Microorganisms (EM) to enhance the degradation of empty fruit bunches, POME & cake during composting process

Palm oil industry is among the 12 National Key Economic Areas (NKEAs) areas which are at the core of the Economics Transformation Program (ETP). Malaysia's palm oil industry is the fourth largest contributor to the national economy and currently accounts for RM53 billion. Wastes from oil palm i...
