Field Establishment

Field Establishment activities are lining, holing and planting of polybag oil palm seedlings at density of 136 to 148 palms per ha, depending on the soil type. It is important that effort is made to obtain full ground coverage by leguminous cover crops such as Pueraria javanica and Calopogonium caeruleum to minimize soil loss through runoff as well as to improve the soil properties through nitrogen fixation.
