Mathematical Optimisation Approach for Improvement of Palm Oil Traceability

Oil palm is recognised as the most productive oil crop with highest oil yield per hectare of agriculture land. The palm oil products generated from oil palm are widely used in our daily life, contributing from food processing, personal care and hygiene sectors as well as the biofuel industry. Howeve...

The palm oil products generated from oil palm are widely used in our daily life, contributing from food processing, personal care and hygiene sectors as well as the biofuel industry.
