Effect of palm waste on sloping land to fresh fruit bunch production in oil palm plantation

Palm waste is abundant and readily available. It is low cost and commonly used as a fertilizer on oil palm plantations. The effectiveness of oil palm waste on sloping lands in oil palm plantation was investigated. Data was collected from each block with sloping lands, including the type, dose, and t...
