Descrizione
Riassunto:The present investigation was carried out in three oil palm plantations located in the Mocache canton. A Randomized Complete Blocks design (DBCA) with three treatments and six repetitions was used. A total of 180 palm clusters of different ages (7, 14 and 16 years) distributed in 18 experimental units, with 10 clusters per treatment, were collected. Analysis of variance was performed, and the means were compared using Tukey's test (P > 0.05). Six variables were evaluated, including bunch weight, number of seeds per bunch, total seed weight per bunch, empty rachis weight, exocarp and fresh pulp weight, and oil extraction. Regarding the results, the bunch weight variable showed that both T2 (14 years) and T3 (16 years) had an average weight of 13.07 and 13.05 kg respectively, without statistically significant differences. The T2 (14 years) presented the highest average number of seeds per bunch with 1778.8 units. In the variable of total weight of seeds per bunch, the T2 (14 years) obtained the highest value with an average of 6.30 kg. Regarding the weight of the empty spine, again the T2 (14 years) showed the highest value with an average of 6.87 kg. Regarding the weight of the endocarp and endosperm when fresh, T2 (14 years) registered the best average with 2.40 g, while in the dry state the highest average was for T1 (7 years) with 1.86 g. Regarding the weight of exocarp and mesocarp, both fresh and dry, T1 (7 years) presented the best averages with 10.78 and 9.53 g respectively. Finally, in the oil extraction variable, T2 (14 years) showed the highest average with a value of 24.17 ml/kg.
