Research on the effects of free fatty acids dynamics of de-cored and non-de-cored unripe oil palm fresh fruit bunches / Muhammad Fakhrurrodhi Zainal Ashirin

Harvesting the Unripe Fresh Fruit Bunches (FFB) has become a common problem by the plantation harvesters which can actually lead to lower Oil Extraction Rate (OER) at the palm oil mill. The Unripe FFBs are usually rejected at the mill and if processed it can lead to Un-stripped Fruit Bunches (USB)....
