Abstract

To increase palm oil production, special attention must be given to various factors that influence plant growth. One crucial step is ensuring optimal care for immature plants to improve their quality and yield. Unfortunately, many smallholder palm oil farmers face limited knowledge and resources to apply proper care practices. Therefore, targeted efforts are needed to help them understand the importance of palm oil plant care to sustain and enhance the profitability of this sector. In Bukit Cermin Hilir Village, Dolok Masihul District, Serdang Bedagai Regency, palm oil plant care uses two main techniques. The first technique is pruning, which involves removing fronds below the fruit bunches. This process facilitates pollination, increases the number of fresh fruit bunches, eases harvesting, and prevents excessive evaporation during the dry season. The second technique is circle clearing, which involves clearing a circular area around the palm tree with a radius of 0.6–1.5 meters to prevent weed growth that could disrupt the plants. Pruning is categorized into three types based on the plant’s age: initial pruning, production pruning, and maintenance pruning. The number of fronds left on each tree ranges from 28 to 54. These care practices optimize plant growth, simplify farm management, and contribute to producing higher-quality palm oil yields.

Abstract

Acceleration of processing for fresh fruit bunches (FFB) is crucial to increase profitability and business opportunities for oil palm farmers. This research aims to evaluate the effect of using gamal (Gliricidia sepium) leaves and the duration of ripening on the percentage of FFB processing as well as the quality of crude palm oil. This study employed a factorial completely randomized design (CRD). The data were analyzed using ANOVA with Duncan’s Multiple Range Test at a significance level of 5%. The results of the analysis showed that the best treatment was S3T2 (40% gamal leaves, 20 h of ripening) with a natural processing percentage of 45.87% of the FFB weight and 60.34% of the total bunch weight. The use of gamal leaves and the duration of ripening significantly affected the quality parameters of the oil, especially the free fatty acid content. Treatment S1T1 (20% gamal leaves, 10 h of ripening) showed the best results with a free fatty acid value of 1.30%, meeting the quality standard (<5%). However, the moisture content still exceeded the quality standard (<0.5%), although treatment S3T2 yielded the best result at 0.63%. While, the impurity content quality met the quality standard (<0.5%), with the best value achieved by treatment S1T1 at 0.15%. Keywords: Bunch detachment, CPO quality, Ethylene, Gliricidia sepium, Ripening.

Abstract

Palm oil mill boiler ash is a solid industrial waste available in large quantities, but its utilization is still limited. This waste has alkaline properties and nutrient content that has the potential to improve the physical-chemical properties of tropical acid soils, such as pH, cation exchange capacity, and macronutrient availability, making it a potential sustainable soil ameliorant. This study aims to process organic fertilizer, namely an organomineral product based on boiler ash, with the aim of evaluating its chemical characteristics and assessing its potential application as a soil ameliorant. The analysis results show that Puler has a pH value of 9 and a nutrient composition that can improve soil quality without heavy metal concentrations above the Indonesian national standard threshold. These findings indicate that Puler can be an efficient alternative ameliorant and supports the utilization of palm oil industry waste. In addition, this puler also meets the criteria for organic fertilizer standards according to SNI 7763:2024

Abstract

Quality control of Crude Palm Oil (CPO) is essential to ensure compliance with quality standards. This study aims to control and analyze CPO quality parameters, namely Free Fatty Acid (FFA), moisture content, and dirt content, using the Seven Tools of Quality Control. The research was conducted at a palm oil mill in South Labuhanbatu Regency, North Sumatra, using laboratory quality data collected from October to December 2024. A descriptive quantitative method was applied by utilizing check sheets, Pareto diagrams, control charts, and fishbone diagrams within the Quality Control Circle (QCC) approach. The results showed that quality deviations occurred in 28 samples for FFA, 22 samples for dirt content, and 14 samples for moisture content. Pareto analysis indicated that FFA and dirt content were the main contributors to quality problems, accounting for 78.13% of total deviations. Control chart analysis revealed several periods of process instability, particularly in FFA values. The study concludes that the Seven Tools of Quality Control are effective in identifying dominant quality problems and supporting improvement efforts to enhance CPO quality.
