Study on knowledge level of oil palm smallholder towards the oil palm basal stem rot disease (BSR).

Oil Palm industry has been the backbone of Malaysian economy for a number of decades. Approximately 11% present of total land has been cultivated with oil palm. The rapid expansion from 2.03 million hectares of cultivation in 1990 to 5.23 million hectares in 2013 (Malaysian Palm Oil Board, 2014) con...
