Efficacy of phosphine as a fumigant against Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) in palms. Short communication. by Llácer, Elena, Jaques, Josep A.

“…Results suggest that a dose of 1.14 g aluminium phosphide m(-3) for 3 days is enough to kill all stages of R. ferrugineus in an infested palm tree. Provided that applied dose of aluminium phosphide is not phytotoxic for palms, this treatment could significantly reduce at low cost the enormous risks that palm imports suppose worldwide.…”

L’exploitation méconnue d’une ressource connue: la collecte des larves comestibles de charançons dans les palmiers raphias au sud Cameroun by Dounias, E.

“…As far as entomophagy is concerned, the first resource that comes to mind concerning the Congo Basin area is the improperly called ‘white worm of palm trees’. This weevil larva (Rhynchophorus phoenicis F., Curculionidae) is commonly known, and if we except local and specific food prohibitions, it is widely appreciated as food throughout Central Africa. …”

Mapping of smallholder oil palm plantation and development of a growth model by Okarda, B., Carolita, I., Kartika, T., Komarudin, Heru

“…Smallholder plantation accounts for 39% of total oil palm plantation in Indonesia, which is currently estimated at 12 million ha.Limited information on spatial distribution of smallholder oil palm and the growth of plantation pose a great challenge for providing information in scientific based.Therefore, information on smallholder oil palm plantation are necessary and they will give valuable input for policy maker and related stakeholders.This study is aimed to generate smallholder oil palm distribution map using optical satellite data of SPOT 7 and investigate the backscatter values of ALOS PALSAR-2 with height and age of oil palm in mineral soil and peatland.We mapped 46,756 ha of smallholder plantation or about 18% of total oil palm plantation in district of Kotawaringin Barat, Central Kalimantan province and 14% of which is located on peatland area.From the result, height to age mineral soil has a strong relationship with R 2 value 0.80 but weak in peatland with R 2 value 0.31.Relationship between height and backscatter in mineral soil has R 2 value 0.43 for HH and 0.30 for HV and in peatland 0.28 for HH and 0.15.Relationship between age and backscatter in mineral soil has moderately strong correlation with R 2 value 0.55 for HH and 0.37 for HV and in peatland 0.36 for HH and 0.28.In all relationship, independent variables are statistically significant with Significance-F value lower than 0.05.In general, height, age, and backscatter relationship in peatland is lower than in mineral soil.Backscatter value can be useful for studying height and age of smallholder oil palm.Further studies are suggested to involve more potential variables and utilize multi temporal datasets in determining height and age of oil palm trees using backscatter values.…”

“…We quantified global patterns of tree palm relative abundance to help improve understanding of tropical forests and reduce uncertainty about these ecosystems under climate change.Tropical and subtropical moist forests.Current.Palms (Arecaceae).We assembled a pantropical dataset of 2,548 forest plots (covering 1,191 ha) and quantified tree palm (i.e., ≥10 cm diameter at breast height) abundance relative to co‐occurring non‐palm trees. We compared the relative abundance of tree palms across biogeographical realms and tested for associations with palaeoclimate stability, current climate, edaphic conditions and metrics of forest structure.On average, the relative abundance of tree palms was more than five times larger between Neotropical locations and other biogeographical realms. …”
