Abstract
The site yield potential SYP has been used as a realistic target for the plantation management to achieve and maximize the oil palm production. This yield potential is currently computed using an empirical and numerical model which is non-spatial. However the oil palm yields are known to vary spatially across the plantation. To represent this we have incorporated Geographical Information System GIS and Global Positioning System GPS technologies into the model. This resulted in a spatial SYP model of oil palm that allows the management to quickly compare the target and actual yields over the whole plantation. This low cost technology can generate the results quickly and display them in a map for better visualization. It also enables the identification of poor areas for immediate corrections in the plantation.
