Abstract

The OER in Malaysia has been on a declining trend for more than a decade. There has not been general consensus through probable causes and possible remedied have been suggested. This is because no analysis has been done on the total effect of certain options policies or strategies to improve nationwide. Most of the analysis done have been localized site specific and carried out on a plantation group or estate basis. Based on case studies of the five best OER and five best improved OER mills nationwide in the periods 1995-96 and 1996-97 up to 1.73 improvement raising OER to 22.58 can and had been achieved. Several factors contributed to the OER increase. Aggregated foremost is the degree of FFB ripeness followed by processing of loose fruit reduction of contaminants etc. In the high OER mills A combination of management strategies and labour incentives helpes mills achieve high degree of FFB ripeness 90 and respectable OER 20 The result of the studies shows the OER has and can be increased from its respective lows of 1995 and 1996. The psychological barrier had been broken and the OER can be increased after all and raised back to the pre-weevil level of 22.
