Remote Sensing Application for Tall Oil Palm Harvester

Abstract

Oil palm is the primary source of economic gain and the community's primary need for palm oil and other daily necessities. In order to maximise the yield and benefits of oil palm, it is very difficult to do so with ordinary labour, and even if it is possible, it takes a long time to produce. Therefore, by adopting new technology, it is possible to overcome the challenges posed by tall oil palm harvesting. The application of remote sensing on tall oil palms will facilitate the harvesting procedure. With advancements in technology, such as remote sensing, it will be possible to achieve better results in less time and with fewer people. This pole has been equipped with multiple functionalities, such as a camera, to facilitate harvesting. This is because the height of the oil palm prevents workers from seeing the condition of the fruit and fronds that will be dropped. This paper also explains the use of remote sensing and its applications to the monitoring of oil palm plantations.
