Effect of timing of chemical application on control of Oryctes rhinoceros in oil palm plantation / Hafizah Shadri

Oryctes rhinoceros was the major pest in most oil palm plantation in Malaysia. As to control it, there are several ways and one of them is chemical control application. An experiment had been done in Felda Maokil 1 Oil Palm Plantation in determining the effect of timing of chemical application to co...
