Oil Palm Fertilization Guide (Old English Edition)

Albert Flori, an agro-statistician at Cirad, contributes his skills to the improvement of tropical perennial cropping systems by developing experimental protocols and interpretation aids to ensure the reliability of decisions concerning plantation fertilization and the choice of plant material.

Xavier Bonneau, an agronomist specialized in coconut and oil palm at Cirad, has set up an agronomic advice to improve the yields and sustainability of plantations, particularly in Africa and Indonesia. The environmental impacts of agricultural practices are taken into account in his work.

Bernard Dubos, a Cirad researcher, has studied tools for diagnosing the nutrient needs of oil palm plantations throughout his career. In partnership with private companies in Africa and Latin America, he has built a network of trials to optimize the fertilization strategies of each plantation and preserve their sustainability.
