Predicting fresh fruit bunch yield of oil palm

open access: yesSongklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2001
This study aimed to develop the simulation model for predicting fresh fruit bunch (FFB) yield of oil palm through multiple linear regression analysis. Two experiments were conducted at the oil palm plantation of Agricultural and Technology College, Krabi province. Six-year-old Tenera hybrid palms were used for the experiments.

Fresh Fruit Bunches Forecasting with the Double Exponential Smoothing Method

open access: yesIndonesian Journal of Artificial Intelligence and Data Mining
PTPN IV Regional 1 Huta Padang Plantation is an oil palm plantation unit in North Sumatra that manages the cultivation, harvesting, and processing of Fresh Fruit Bunches (FFB) to produce palm oil. During the harvest process to produce Crude Palm Oil (CPO), a lot is often wasted due to unstable market demand.

Seasonal variation in fresh fruit bunch production in dura oil palm

open access: yesThe Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2017
An attempt was made to study the temporal variation in the Fresh Fruit Bunche’s (FFB) production in dura palms at Indian Institute of Oil Palm Research, Pedavegi, Andhra Pradesh. The performance of the two D × D cross combinations, viz. 240D × 281D (CC1 palms) and 80D × 281D (CC2 palms) planted in the year 2000 in terms of number and weight of ...

The relative abundance of crop and natural food influences crop consumption by brown bears

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Many mammalian species now inhabit anthropogenic landscapes, and human–wildlife conflicts, particularly pertaining to crop damage, have become a significant issue. To develop more effective measures to limit crop damage caused by wildlife, it is crucial to identify how natural and anthropogenic food availability affect crop use by wildlife in the ...

‘I like to dance with the flowers!’: Exploring the possibilities for biodiverse futures in an urban forest school

open access: yesChildren &Society, EarlyView.
Abstract This article explores the ways in which ‘forest school’, an educational approach where children engage in creative and play based activities in a ‘natural’ environment, can contribute towards Sustainable Development Goal 15 (SDG 15) by promoting sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems and by helping address biodiversity loss. Drawing on data

Does the munch affect the bunch? Using community science to explore insect herbivory and fruit production in an understory plant

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
We used iNaturalist records, a longitudinal field survey, and a simulated herbivory experiment to explore how insect herbivory factors are associated with Cornus canadensis fruit production. Naturally observed internal and external insect herbivory was mostly low intensity and did not have a strong relationship with fruit production.
