The physiology efficiency and agronomic efficiency of fertilizer at mature oil palm – a review / Norsahira Mohd Sidik

This review is about the nutrient use efficiency in the mature oil palm. The efficiency is defined as the amount of product produced per unit of resource used. There are three type of efficiency which are 1) agronomic efficiency (AE), 2) physiological efficiency (PE), 3) apparent recovery efficiency...
