Abstract
The palm by-products available in an oil palm production could be a good source of nutrients for the palm. To get the best of its value the materials can be collected and made to a compost. Of the five methods of composting studied chemical digestion proved to be most economic and efficient. A good quality compost of known nutrient composition can substitute a major share of fertiliser requirement. This integrated approach of nutrient management helps to improve the soil fertility and oil palm productivity in the long run.
