Effects of storage time and height on the starch content in the oil palm trunk
The oil palm contains a high amount of starch, especially in the trunk. This starch has high potential to be commercialized as raw material for starch-based products. The study investigated how storage time, position in the trunk and height affect the starch content of the oil palm trunk. The starch...
