The optimal felling rate in the palm oil plantation system

Successful oil palm plantation should have high profit, clean and environmental friendly. Since oil palm trees have a long life and it takes years to be fully grown, controlling the felling rate of the oil palm trees is a fundamental challenge. It needs to be addressed in order to maximize oil produ...
