Can input¨Coutput optimisation predict and improve oil palm plantation productivity?

Thus, this work develops an input¨Coutput optimisation model (IOM) to predict and improve FFB productivity in oil palm plantations. The optimised solution to this model provides recommendations on adequate resources needed to ensure highest FFB yield, and thus smallest plantation size that meets the downstream requirement.

How can oil palm plantation operations be optimised?

In this study, oil palm plantation operations are optimised using an input¨Coutput model to determine maximum yield with minimum plantation size and greenhouse gases emissions. Multiple scenarios can be incorporated in the proposed model.

Why do oil palm plantations need continuous production?

Continuous production of fresh fruit bunches in oil palm plantation is essential to meet this growing demand. Meanwhile, the productivity of plantations is highly dependent on the supply of resources (e.g., water, fertilisers and sunlight) and on proper plantation management systems.

Can input¨Coutput optimisation model predict FFB production in oil palm plantations?

However, the industry still lacks systematic planning tools which can estimate and optimise FFB production based on resources supplied to the oil palm plantation. Thus, this work develops an input¨Coutput optimisation model (IOM) to predict and improve FFB productivity in oil palm plantations.
