Quick determination of actual oil content in oil palm fruit bunch using near infra red (NIR) scanning spectrometer

This research was being carried out to determine the oil contents of oil palm fruits in fastest possible time and to determine the effects of bunch weight (ranges from <20kg, 20-29kg, 30-39kg, 40-49kg and 50-59kg) and palm tree ages (ranges from 812years, 13-20years and >21years) on oil conten...
