Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is one of the main plantation crops in Indonesia. The aroma of pollen and nectar from male oil palm flowers is attractive to pollinating insects. The lack of male flower availability in oil palm leads to a low population of E. kamerunicus due to habitat and food source limitations. The low population of pollinating insects results in sub-optimal oil palm produ…
Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is one of the largest plantation commodities in Indonesia. Palm oil productivity depends on the amount of pollen from male flowers that falls onto female flowers.
